PART I

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements made in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are “forward-looking statements” (within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) regarding the plans and objectives of management for future operations. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results, performance or achievements of the Registrant to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements included herein are based on current expectations that involve numerous risks and uncertainties. The Registrant’s plans and objectives are based, in part, on assumptions involving the continued expansion of business. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond the control of the Registrant. Although the Registrant believes its assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of the assumptions could prove to be inaccurate and, therefore, there can be no assurance the forward-looking statements included in this Report will prove to be accurate. Considering the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by the Registrant or any other person that the objectives and plans of the Registrant will be achieved.

The forward-looking statements included in this Form 10-K and referred to elsewhere are related to future events, our strategies or future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “future,” “potential,” “estimate,” “encourage,” “opportunity,” “growth,” “leader,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “expand,” “focus,” “through,” “strategy,” “provide,” “offer,” “allow,” “commitment,” “implement,” “result,” “increase,” “establish,” “perform,” “make,” “continue,” “can,” “ongoing,” “include” or the negative of such terms or comparable terminology. All forward-looking statements included in this Form 10-K are based on information available to us as of the filing date of this report, and the Company assumes no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements, except as required by law. Our actual results could differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements include those described in Item 1A, “Risk Factors.”

Unless otherwise noted, the following discussion of the Company’s business in Item 1, “Business” and its risk factors in Item 1A, “Risk Factors” is based on its operations as of December 31, 2023. Subsequent to December 31, 2023, the Company sold certain of its healthcare businesses as more fully discussed below under the heading, “Recent Developments.”

Rennova Health, Inc. (“Rennova”, together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, “its” or “our”) is a provider of health care services. The Company owns one operating hospital in Oneida, Tennessee and a hospital located in Jamestown, Tennessee that it plans to reopen. In addition, the Company owns a subsidiary providing services in the behavioral health sector on the campus of its hospital in Oneida, Tennessee. The Company’s operations consist of only one segment.

Rennova Health, Inc. is the result of a merger between two public companies, Medytox Solutions, Inc. and CollabRx, Inc. Medytox Solutions, Inc. (“Medytox”) was organized on July 20, 2005 under the laws of the State of Nevada. On November 2, 2015, pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 15, 2015, by and among CollabRx, Inc. (“CollabRx”), CollabRx Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of CollabRx formed for the purpose of the merger, and Medytox, Merger Sub merged with and into Medytox, with Medytox as the surviving company and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of CollabRx (the “Merger”). Prior to closing, the Company amended its certificate of incorporation to change its name to Rennova Health, Inc. This transaction was accounted for as a reverse merger in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and, as such, the historical financial statements of Medytox became the historical financial statements of the Company.

Operations

Our hospital operations began on August 8, 2017, following the receipt of the required licenses and regulatory approvals to open our first hospital in Oneida, Tennessee.

Scott County Community Hospital (d/b/a Big South Fork Medical Center)

On January 13, 2017, we acquired certain assets related to Scott County Community Hospital, based in Oneida, Tennessee (the “Oneida Assets”). The Oneida Assets include a 52,000-square foot hospital building and 6,300-square foot professional building on approximately 4.3 acres. Scott County Community Hospital has 25 beds, a 24/7 emergency department and a laboratory that provides a range of diagnostic services. Scott County Community Hospital closed in July 2016 in connection with the bankruptcy filing of its then parent company, Pioneer Health Services, Inc. We acquired the Oneida Assets out of bankruptcy for a purchase price of $1.0 million. The hospital, which has since been renamed Big South Fork Medical Center, became operational on August 8, 2017. The hospital became certified as a Critical Access Hospital (rural) hospital in December 2021, retroactive to June 30, 2021.

Myrtle Recovery Centers, Inc.

In the second quarter of 2022, the Company formed a subsidiary, Myrtle Recovery Centers, Inc. (“Myrtle”), to pursue opportunities in the behavioral health sector, initially in our core, rural markets. We are leveraging our existing physical locations and corporate and regional infrastructure to offer behavioral health services, including substance abuse treatment. Services are provided on either an inpatient, residential basis or an outpatient basis.

On August 10, 2023, Myrtle was granted a license by the Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services of Tennessee to operate an alcohol and drug treatment facility in Oneida Tennessee. The facility, which is located at Rennova’s Big South Fork Medical Center campus, commenced operations and began accepting patients on August 14, 2023. The facility offers alcohol and drug residential detoxification and residential rehabilitation treatment services for up to 30 patients. On November 1, 2023, Myrtle began accepting patients at its recently opened Nonresidential Office-Based Opiate Treatment Facility (“OBOT”). The OBOT is located adjacent to Myrtle’s alcohol and drug treatment facility in Oneida, Tennessee and supplements the existing residential rehabilitation and detoxification services offered at Myrtle.

On April 11, 2023, Myrtle sold shares of its common stock equivalent to a 1.961% ownership stake in the subsidiary for de minimis value to an unaffiliated individual licensed as a physician in Tennessee. The shares have certain transfer restrictions, including the right of the subsidiary to transfer the shares to another physician licensed in Tennessee for de minimis value. The shares were sold to the individual for Tennessee healthcare regulatory reasons.

Jamestown Regional Medical Center

On June 1, 2018, we acquired from Community Health Systems, Inc. certain assets related to an acute care hospital located in Jamestown, Tennessee, referred to as Jamestown Regional Medical Center, for a purchase price of $0.7 million. The hospital is an 85-bed facility of approximately 90,000-square feet on over eight acres of land, which offered a 24-hour emergency department with two trauma bays and seven private exam rooms, inpatient and outpatient medical services and a progressive care unit which provided telemetry services. The acquisition also included a separate physician practice known as Mountain View Physician Practice, Inc.

The Company suspended operations at the hospital and physician practice in June 2019, as a result of the termination of the hospital’s Medicare agreement and other factors. The Company is evaluating whether to reopen the facility as an acute care hospital or as another type of healthcare facility. Jamestown is located 38 miles west of Big South Fork Medical Center.

CarePlus Clinic

On March 5, 2019, we acquired certain assets related to an outpatient clinic located in Williamsburg, Kentucky, known as CarePlus Clinic. The clinic and its associated assets, which were acquired from CarePlus Rural Health Clinic, LLC, offered compassionate care in a modern, patient-friendly facility. The CarePlus Clinic was located 32 miles northwest of our Big South Fork Medical Center. On January 31, 2024, the Company closed the CarePlus Clinic.

Recent Developments

On June 10, 2024, the Company entered into two stock exchange agreements, each with FOXO Technologies, Inc. (“FOXO”).

Sale of Myrtle Under First Stock Exchange Agreement

The first sale agreement with FOXO, dated June 10, 2024, (the “Myrtle Agreement”), provided for the Company to exchange all of its equity interest in Myrtle for $0.5 million, payable in shares of FOXO’s Class A Common Stock (the “FOXO Common Stock”). This transaction closed on June 14, 2024. On June 25, 2024, the parties to the Myrtle Agreement entered into a Consent and Waiver (the “Consent and Waiver”), pursuant to which FOXO issued 1,023,629 shares of FOXO Class A Common Stock (‘FOXO Common Stock”) to the Company on July 17, 2024 (which was the date of approval of the NYSE American, upon which the FOXO Common Stock is listed). Such shares represented $0.2 million of the purchase price. Pursuant to the Consent and Waiver, the remainder of the purchase price of $0.3 million was represented by a promissory note issued by FOXO to the Company. The promissory note is non-interest bearing, is due on demand and payable in cash or, upon receipt of required approval of the issuance under the rules of the NYSE American, in shares of FOXO Common Stock.

In addition to the $0.3 million promissory note issued to the Company by FOXO for a portion of the purchase price of Myrtle, which is discussed above, Myrtle issued a note payable to the Company dated June 13, 2024, in the original principal amount of $1.6 million, which represented the amount owed by Myrtle to the Company at the time of the sale of Myrtle to FOXO. The note is non-interest bearing, except if not paid by the maturity date of December 31, 2024, in which case the note will bear interest at 18% per annum. The Company is in discussions with FOXO about extending the maturity of the note.

Sale of Rennova Community Health, Inc. (“RCHI”) Under Second Stock Exchange Agreement

The second sale agreement with FOXO, also dated June 10, 2024, (the “RCHI Agreement”) provided for the Company to exchange all of the outstanding shares of its subsidiary RCHI, including RCHI’s wholly-owned subsidiary Scott County Community Hospital, Inc. (“SCCH”), for 20,000 shares of FOXO’s to-be-authorized Series A Cumulative Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “FOXO Series A Preferred Stock”). Closing of the RCHI Agreement was subject to a number of conditions. On September 10, 2024, the parties to the RCHI Agreement entered into an Amended and Restated Securities Exchange Agreement (the “Amendment”) which revised the consideration payable to the Company from shares of FOXO Series A Preferred Stock to $100. In addition, RCHI issued to the Company a senior secured note in the principal amount of $22.0 million (subject to adjustment) (the “RCHI Note”). The RCHI Note matures on September 10, 2026 and accrues interest on any outstanding principal amount at the rate of 8% per annum for the first six months, increasing to 12% per annum thereafter. After maturity, interest accrues at a rate of 20% per annum. The RCHI Note required principal repayments equal to 10% of the free cash flow (net cash from operations less capital expenditures) from RCHI and SCCH.

The RCHI Note is guaranteed by FOXO and SCCH, pursuant to the terms of a Guaranty Agreement (the “Guaranty”). The RCHI Note is also secured by the assets of RCHI and Scott County pursuant to a Security and Pledge Agreement (the “RCHI Pledge Agreement”) and by the “Collateral” owned by FOXO as provided in the Security and Pledge Agreement with FOXO (the “FOXO Pledge Agreement”). The Amendment also provides that the Company may at any time request that FOXO seek approval of its shareholders of the issuance of FOXO Common Stock upon conversion in full of the shares of FOXO Series A Preferred Stock issuable upon exchange of the RCHI Note. At any time after receipt of such approval, the Company shall have the option to exchange, in whole or in part, the RCHI Note for shares of FOXO Series A Preferred Stock. Upon any such exchange, the Company will receive the equivalent of $1.00 stated value of FOXO Series A Preferred Stock for each $1.00 of the aggregate of principal and accrued and unpaid interest, liquidated damages and/or redemption proceeds (or any other amounts owing under the RCHI Note) being exchanged. On December 5, 2024, the Company entered into an Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with FOXO and RCHI. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, $21.0 million of the principal of the RCHI Note was exchanged for 21,000 shares of FOXO Series A Preferred Stock. Upon the closing of the Exchange Agreement, RCHI executed a new senior secured promissory note payable to the Company in the principal amount of $1.0 million on the same terms of the RCHI Note (the “New Note”). The New Note matures on June 5, 2025.

Other recent developments are presented in Note 18. to the consolidated financial statements presented elsewhere in this Annual Report.

Discontinued Operations

During the third quarter of 2020, the Company made a decision to sell EPIC Reference Labs, Inc. (“EPIC”) and it also decided to discontinue several other non-operating subsidiaries. In addition, during the fourth quarter of 2024, several additional non-operating subsidiaries were discontinued. As a result, EPIC’s operations and the other non-operating subsidiaries’ liabilities have been included in discontinued operations for all periods presented. The Company was unable to find a buyer for EPIC and, therefore, it has ceased all efforts to sell EPIC and has closed down its operations.

Outlook

Rural healthcare facilities provide a much-needed service to their local communities. We currently operate one hospital and an alcohol and drug treatment and OBOT facility. We also own another hospital at which operations are currently suspended. Owning a number of facilities in the same geographic location creates numerous efficiencies in management, purchasing and staffing and will enable the provision of additional, specialized and more valuable services that are needed by rural communities but cannot be sustained by a standalone facility.

Impact of the Pandemic

Demand for services at our hospitals was substantially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Moreover, the pandemic affected our ability to maintain adequate healthcare staffing levels which put pressure on salaries and wages and the need for higher cost, contract labor. The availability of healthcare supplies was limited, and supplies costs increased as well. Reduced demand and higher costs negatively affected our overall profitability and liquidity. Although the effects of COVID-19 have not been as significant recently, a resurgence of COVID-19 in our markets could affect demand for services and increase our costs. In addition, government assistance programs may not be available as have been in the past to address such near-term profitability and liquidity pressures. These developments have had, and may in the future have, a material adverse effect on us and the operations of our healthcare facilities.

Competition

The healthcare industry is highly competitive among hospitals, behavioral health services and other healthcare providers for patients and affiliations with physicians. The most significant competition our hospitals, and any other hospitals we may acquire, face comes from hospitals that provide more complex services, and other healthcare providers, including behavioral health facilities, urgent care clinics and diagnostic imaging centers that also compete for patients. In addition, increasing consolidation within the payor industry, vertical integration efforts involving payors and healthcare providers, and cost-reduction strategies by large employer groups and their affiliates may impact our ability to contract with payors on favorable terms and otherwise affect our competitive position.

Governmental Regulation

Overview

The healthcare industry is governed by an extremely complex framework of federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations, and there continues to be federal and state proposals that would, and actions that do, impose limitations on government and private payments to providers. In addition, there regularly are proposals to increase co-payments and deductibles from program and private patients. Facilities also are affected by controls imposed by government and private payors designed to reduce admissions and lengths of stay. Such controls include what is commonly referred to as “utilization review.” Utilization review entails the review of a patient’s admission and course of treatment by a third party. Historically, utilization review has resulted in a decrease in certain treatments and procedures being performed. Utilization review is required in connection with the provision of care which is to be funded by Medicare and Medicaid and is also required under many managed care arrangements.

Many states have enacted, or are considering enacting, additional measures that are designed to reduce their Medicaid expenditures and to make changes to private healthcare insurance. Various states have applied, or are considering applying, for a waiver from current Medicaid regulations in order to allow them to serve some of their Medicaid participants through managed care providers. These proposals also may attempt to include coverage for some people who presently are uninsured, and generally could have the effect of reducing payments to hospitals, physicians and other providers for the same level of service provided under Medicaid.

Healthcare Facility Regulation

Certificate of Need Requirements

A number of states require approval for the purchase, construction or expansion of various healthcare facilities, including findings of need for additional or expanded healthcare services. Certificates of Need (“CONs”), which are issued by governmental agencies with jurisdiction over applicable healthcare facilities, are at times required for capital expenditures exceeding a prescribed amount, changes in bed capacity or the addition of services and certain other matters. Tennessee, the state in which we currently own our facilities, has a CON law that applies to such facilities. States periodically review, modify and revise their CON laws and related regulations. Any violation of state CON laws can result in the imposition of civil sanctions or the revocation of licenses for such facilities. We are unable to predict whether our hospitals will be able to obtain any CONs that may be necessary to accomplish their business objectives in any jurisdiction where such certificates of need are required. In addition, future healthcare facility acquisitions also may occur in states that require CONs.

Future healthcare facility acquisitions also may occur in states that do not require CONs or which have less stringent CON requirements than the state in which Rennova currently owns healthcare facilities. Any healthcare facility operated by the Company in such states may face increased competition from new or expanding facilities operated by competitors, including physicians.

Utilization Review Compliance and Hospital Governance

Healthcare facilities are subject to, and are required to comply with, various forms of utilization review. In addition, under the Medicare prospective payment system, each state must have a peer review organization to carry out a federally mandated system of review of Medicare patient admissions, treatments and discharges in hospitals. Medical and surgical services are supervised by committees of staff doctors at each healthcare facility, are overseen by each healthcare facility’s local governing board, the primary voting members of which are physicians and community members, and are reviewed by quality assurance personnel. The local governing boards also help maintain standards for quality care, develop long-range plans, establish, review and enforce practices and procedures and approve the credentials and disciplining of medical staff members.

Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act

The Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act (“EMTALA”) is a federal law that requires any hospital that participates in the Medicare program to conduct an appropriate medical screening examination of every person who presents to the hospital’s emergency department for treatment and, if the patient is suffering from an emergency medical condition or is in active labor, to either stabilize that condition or make an appropriate transfer of the patient to a facility that can handle the condition. The obligation to screen and stabilize emergency medical conditions exists regardless of a patient’s ability to pay for treatment. There are severe penalties under EMTALA if a hospital fails to screen or appropriately stabilize or transfer a patient or if the hospital delays appropriate treatment in order to first inquire about the patient’s ability to pay. Penalties for violations of EMTALA include civil monetary penalties and exclusion from participation in the Medicare program, the Medicaid program or both. In addition, an injured patient, the patient’s family or a medical facility that suffers a financial loss as a direct result of another hospital’s violation of the law can bring a civil suit against that other hospital. Although we believe that we comply with EMTALA, we cannot predict whether the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”) will implement new requirements in the future and whether we will be able to comply with any new requirements.

Drugs and Controlled Substances

Various licenses and permits are required by our hospitals to dispense narcotics. We are required to register our dispensing operations for permits and/or licenses with, and comply with certain operating and security standards of, the United States Drug Enforcement Agency (“DEA”), the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), state health departments and other state agencies.

Fraud and Abuse, Anti-Kickback and Self-Referral Regulations

Participation in the Medicare and/or Medicaid programs is heavily regulated by federal statutes and regulations. If we fail to comply substantially with the numerous federal laws governing our businesses, our participation in the Medicare and/or Medicaid programs may be terminated and/or civil or criminal penalties may be imposed. For example, a hospital may lose its ability to participate in the Medicare and/or Medicaid programs if it:

Hospitals continue to be one of the primary focus areas of the federal Office of the Inspector General (“OIG”) and other governmental fraud and abuse programs and the OIG has issued and periodically updates compliance program guidance for hospitals. Each federal fiscal year, the OIG also publishes a General Work Plan that provides a brief description of the activities that the OIG plans to initiate or continue with respect to the programs and operations of the Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”) and details the areas that the OIG believes are prone to fraud and abuse.

Sections of the Anti-Fraud and Abuse Amendments to the Social Security Act, commonly known as the “anti-kickback” statute, prohibit certain business practices and relationships that might influence the provision and cost of healthcare services reimbursable under Medicare, Medicaid, TriCare or other healthcare programs, including the payment or receipt of remuneration for the referral of patients whose care will be funded by Medicare or other government programs. Sanctions for violating the anti-kickback statute include criminal penalties and civil sanctions, including fines and possible exclusion from future participation in government programs, such as Medicare and Medicaid. HHS has issued regulations that create safe harbors under the anti-kickback statute. A given business arrangement that does not fall within an enumerated safe harbor is not per se illegal; however, business arrangements that fail to satisfy the applicable safe harbor criteria are subject to increased scrutiny by enforcement authorities.

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”) broadened the scope of the fraud and abuse laws by adding several criminal statutes that are not related to receipt of payments from a federal healthcare program. HIPAA created civil penalties for proscribed conduct, including upcoding and billing for medically unnecessary goods or services. These laws cover all health insurance programs, private as well as governmental. In addition, HIPAA broadened the scope of certain fraud and abuse laws, such as the anti-kickback statute, to include not just Medicare and Medicaid services, but all healthcare services reimbursed under a federal or state healthcare program. Finally, HIPAA established enforcement mechanisms to combat fraud and abuse. These mechanisms include a bounty system where a portion of the payment recovered is returned to the government agencies, as well as a whistleblower program, where a portion of the payment received is paid to the whistleblower. HIPAA also expanded the categories of persons that may be excluded from participation in federal and state healthcare programs.

There is increasing scrutiny by law enforcement authorities, the OIG, the courts and the U.S. Congress of arrangements between healthcare providers and potential referral sources to ensure that the arrangements are not designed as mechanisms to exchange remuneration for patient-care referrals and opportunities. Investigators also have demonstrated a willingness to look behind the formalities of a business transaction and to reinterpret the underlying purpose of payments between healthcare providers and potential referral sources. Enforcement actions have increased, as is evidenced by highly publicized enforcement investigations of certain hospital activities.

In addition, provisions of the Social Security Act, known as the Stark Act, also prohibit physicians from referring Medicare and Medicaid patients to providers of a broad range of designated health services with which the physicians or their immediate family members have ownership or certain other financial arrangements. Certain exceptions are available for employment agreements, leases, physician recruitment and certain other physician arrangements. A person making a referral, or seeking payment for services referred, in violation of the Stark Act is subject to civil monetary penalties; restitution of any amounts received for illegally billed claims; and/or exclusion from future participation in the Medicare program, which can subject the person or entity to exclusion from future participation in state healthcare programs.

Further, if any physician or entity enters into an arrangement or scheme that the physician or entity knows or should have known has the principal purpose of assuring referrals by the physician to a particular entity, and the physician directly makes referrals to such entity, then such physician or entity could be subject to a civil monetary penalty. Compliance with and the enforcement of penalties for violations of these laws and regulations is changing and increasing. For example, CMS has issued a “self-referral disclosure protocol” for hospitals and other providers that wish to self-disclose potential violations of the Stark Act and attempt to resolve those potential violations and any related overpayment liabilities at levels below the maximum penalties and amounts set forth in the statute. In light of the provisions of the Affordable Care Act that created potential liabilities under the federal False Claims Act (discussed below) for failing to report and repay known overpayments and return an overpayment within 60 days of the identification of the overpayment or the date by which a corresponding cost report is due, whichever is later, hospitals and other healthcare providers are encouraged to disclose potential violations of the Stark Act to CMS. It is likely that self-disclosure of Stark Act violations will increase in the future. Finally, many states have adopted or are considering similar legislative proposals, some of which extend beyond the Medicaid program, to prohibit the payment or receipt of remuneration for the referral of patients and physician self-referrals regardless of the source of the payment for the care.

The Federal False Claims Act and Similar State Laws

The federal False Claims Act prohibits providers from, among other things, knowingly submitting false or fraudulent claims for payment to the federal government. The False Claims Act defines the term “knowingly” broadly, and while simple negligence generally will not give rise to liability, submitting a claim with reckless disregard to its truth or falsity can constitute the “knowing” submission of a false or fraudulent claim for the purposes of the False Claims Act. The “qui tam” or “whistleblower” provisions of the False Claims Act allow private individuals to bring actions under the False Claims Act on behalf of the government. These private parties are entitled to share in any amounts recovered by the government, and, as a result, the number of “whistleblower” lawsuits that have been filed against providers has increased significantly in recent years. When a private party brings a qui tam action under the False Claims Act, the defendant will generally not be aware of the lawsuit until the government makes a determination whether it will intervene and take a lead in the litigation. If a provider is found to be liable under the False Claims Act, the provider may be required to pay up to three times the actual damages sustained by the government plus mandatory civil monetary penalties for each separate false claim. The government has used the False Claims Act to prosecute Medicare and other government healthcare program fraud such as coding errors, billing for services not provided, submitting false cost reports, and providing care that is not medically necessary or that is substandard in quality. A qui tam lawsuit has been filed against the Company alleging violations of the False Claims Act. See “Legal Proceedings”.

HIPAA Transaction, Privacy and Security Requirements

HIPAA and federal regulations issued pursuant to HIPAA contain, among other measures, provisions that have required the Company to implement modified or new computer systems, employee training programs and business procedures. The federal regulations are intended to encourage electronic commerce in the healthcare industry, provide for the confidentiality and privacy of patient healthcare information and ensure the security of healthcare information.

A violation of the HIPAA regulations could result in civil money penalties per standard violated. HIPAA also provides for criminal penalties and one year in prison for knowingly and improperly obtaining or disclosing protected health information, up to five years in prison for obtaining protected health information under false pretenses and up to ten years in prison for obtaining or disclosing protected health information with the intent to sell, transfer or use such information for commercial advantage, personal gain or malicious harm. Since there is limited history of enforcement efforts by the federal government at this time, it is difficult to ascertain the likelihood of enforcement efforts in connection with the HIPAA regulations or the potential for fines and penalties, which may result from any violation of the regulations.

HIPAA Privacy Regulations

HIPAA privacy regulations protect the privacy of individually identifiable health information. The regulations provide increased patient control over medical records, mandate substantial financial penalties for violation of a patient’s right to privacy and, with a few exceptions, require that an individual’s individually identifiable health information only be used for healthcare-related purposes. These privacy standards apply to all health plans, all healthcare clearinghouses and all healthcare providers, such as our healthcare facilities, that transmit health information in an electronic form in connection with standard transactions and apply to individually identifiable information held or disclosed by a covered entity in any form. These standards impose extensive administrative requirements on us and require compliance with rules governing the use and disclosure of such health information, and they require our facilities to impose these rules, by contract, on any business associate to whom we disclose such information in order to perform functions on our behalf. In addition, we are subject to any state laws that are more restrictive than the privacy regulations issued under HIPAA. These laws vary by state and could impose stricter standards and additional penalties.

The HIPAA privacy regulations also require healthcare providers to implement and enforce privacy policies to ensure compliance with the regulations and standards. We believe all of our facilities are in compliance with current HIPAA privacy regulations.

HIPAA Electronic Data Standards

The Administrative Simplification Provisions of HIPAA require the use of uniform electronic data transmission standards for all healthcare related electronic data interchange. These provisions are intended to streamline and encourage electronic commerce in the healthcare industry. Among other things, these provisions require us to use standard data formats and code sets established by HHS when electronically transmitting information in connection with certain transactions, including health claims and equivalent encounter information, healthcare payment and remittance advice and health claim status.

The HHS regulations establish electronic data transmission standards that all healthcare providers and payors must use when submitting and receiving certain electronic healthcare transactions. The uniform data transmission standards are designed to enable healthcare providers to exchange billing and payment information directly with the many payors thereby eliminating data clearinghouses and simplifying the interface programs necessary to perform this function. We believe that our management information systems comply with HIPAA’s electronic data regulations and standards.

HIPAA Security Standards

The Administrative Simplification Provisions of HIPAA require the use of a series of security standards for the protection of electronic health information. The HIPAA security standards rule specifies a series of administrative, technical and physical security procedures for covered entities to use to assure the confidentiality of electronic protected health information. The standards are delineated into either required or addressable implementation specifications. We believe we are in compliance with all the aspects of the HIPAA security regulations.

HIPAA National Provider Identifier

HIPAA also required HHS to issue regulations establishing standard unique health identifiers for individuals, employers, health plans and healthcare providers to be used in connection with standard electronic transactions. All healthcare providers, including our hospitals, were required to obtain a new National Provider Identifier (“NPI”) to be used in standard transactions instead of other numerical identifiers by May 23, 2007. Our hospitals implemented use of a standard unique healthcare identifier by utilizing their employer identification number. HHS has not yet issued proposed rules that establish the standard for unique health identifiers for health plans or individuals. Once these regulations are issued in final form, we expect to have approximately one to two years to become fully compliant, but cannot predict the impact of such changes at this time. We cannot predict whether our facilities may experience payment delays during the transition to the new identifiers. HHS is currently working on the standards for identifiers for health plans; however, there are currently no proposed timelines for issuance of proposed or final rules. The issuance of proposed rules for individuals is on hold indefinitely.

Medical Waste Regulations

Our operations, especially our hospitals, generate medical waste that must be disposed of in compliance with federal, state and local environmental laws, rules and regulations. Our operations are also generally subject to various other environmental laws, rules and regulations. Based on our current level of operations, we do not anticipate that such compliance costs will have a material adverse effect on our cash flows, financial position or results of operations.

Compliance Program

The Company continuously evaluates and monitors its compliance with all Medicare, Medicaid and other rules and regulations. The objective of the Company’s compliance program is to develop, implement and update compliance safeguards as necessary. Emphasis is placed on developing and implementing compliance policies and guidelines, personnel training programs and various monitoring and audit procedures to attempt to achieve implementation of all applicable rules and regulations.

The Company seeks to conduct its business in compliance with all statutes, regulations, and other requirements applicable to its operations. The health care industry is, however, subject to extensive regulation, and many of these statutes and regulations have not been interpreted by the courts. There can be no assurance that applicable statutes and regulations will not be interpreted or applied by a prosecutorial, regulatory or judicial authority in a manner that would adversely affect the Company. Potential sanctions for violation of these statutes and regulations include significant civil and criminal penalties, fines, exclusions from participation in government health care programs and the loss of various licenses, certificates and authorizations necessary to operate as well as potential liabilities from third-party claims, all of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business.

Professional Liability

As part of our business, our facilities are subject to claims of liability for events occurring in the ordinary course of operations. Professional malpractice liability insurance and general liability insurance policies are maintained in amounts which are required and/or commercially available and believed to be sufficient for operations as currently conducted, although some claims may exceed the scope or amount of the coverage in effect.

Environmental Regulation

We believe we are in substantial compliance with applicable federal, state and local environmental regulations. To date, compliance with federal, state and local laws regulating the discharge of material into the environment or otherwise relating to the protection of the environment have not had a material effect upon our results of operations, financial condition or competitive position. Similarly, we have not had to make material capital expenditures to comply with such regulations.

Payment for Services

The Company’s healthcare operations depend significantly on continued participation in the Medicare and Medicaid programs and in other government healthcare programs. In recent years, both governmental and private sector payers have made efforts to contain or reduce health care costs, including reducing reimbursement for services.

Under the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021, Congress adopted provisions to help protect patients against surprise bills and provide more price transparency. Patients have new billing protections when receiving emergency care and non-emergency care from out-of-network providers at in-network facilities. Excessive out-of-pocket costs are restricted and emergency services must continue to be covered without any prior authorization and regardless of whether or not a provider or facility is in-network.

Further healthcare reform could occur, including changes to the Affordable Care Act and Medicare reform, as well as administrative requirements that may affect coverage, reimbursement and utilization of our hospitals in ways that are currently unpredictable.

Employees

On April 1, 2024, we had 149 employees, of which 96 were full-time. None of the Company’s employees are represented by a union.

Available Information

We are required to file Annual Reports on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on a regular basis and are required to disclose certain material events in a Current Report on Form 8-K. All reports of the Company filed with the SEC are available free of charge through the SEC’s Web site at http://www.sec.gov. In addition, the public may read and copy materials filed by the Company at the SEC’s Public Reference Room located at 100 F Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20549. The public may also obtain additional information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330.

An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. These risks include those set forth herein. You should carefully consider the following risk factors and uncertainties described below and the other information in this Annual Report before you decide to invest in our securities. The occurrence of any of the adverse developments described in the following risk factors could materially and adversely harm our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects. In that case, the trading price of our securities could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment. You should not invest in our securities unless you can afford the loss of your entire investment.

The Company’s operations have historically operated at a loss and with a cash deficiency. The Company has limited access to capital and is dependent on its ability to secure the funding required for its cash requirements and to execute on its business plan. Unless we raise sufficient funds, we will not be able to execute our business model.

In the past, we have relied on issuances of preferred stock, notes payable, loans from a former member of our Board of Directors, and various federal government loan and grant programs to fund our operations. While we generated positive cash flow from operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2023, a significant portion of our operating activity obligations, including accounts payable and accrued expenses, are past due. We did not generate positive cash flow from operating activities in previous years. In addition, prior year losses have created a need for additional capital, often at short notice, required for the Company to remain in business. If this trend were to continue and we are unable to raise sufficient capital to fund our operations, our business will be adversely affected, and we may not be able to continue as a going concern (see Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, “Liquidity and Capital Resources”). There can be no assurances that we will be able to raise sufficient funds on terms that are acceptable to us, or at all, to fund our operations under our current business model.

Although our financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, we have accumulated significant losses and have had negative cash flows from operations that could adversely affect our ability to refinance existing indebtedness or raise additional capital to fund our operations or limit our ability to react to changes in the economy or our industry, which raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

If we are unable to improve our liquidity position we may not be able to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result if we are unable to continue as a going concern and, therefore, be required to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities other than in the normal course of business, which could cause investors to suffer the loss of all or a substantial portion of their investment.

At December 31, 2023, the Company had a working capital deficit and stockholders’ deficit of $35.6 million and $36.8 million, respectively. The Company had net losses of $7.7 million and $3.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. As of the date of this report, the Company’s cash is deficient and payments for its operations in the ordinary course are not being made, including past due accounts payable and past due payroll taxes. In addition, the Company has an outstanding note payable in the amount of $1.0 million that is past due and a related party loan in the amount of $2.2 million for which repayment has been requested.

There can be no assurance that we will be able to achieve our business plan, which is to acquire and operate clusters of rural hospitals and related assets, raise any additional capital or secure the additional financing necessary to implement our current operating plan. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to raise adequate capital to fund our operations and repay our outstanding debentures and other past due obligations, fully align our operating costs, increase our net revenues and eventually gain profitable operations. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.

Our behavioral health facility may not become profitable.

In the second quarter of 2022, we formed Myrtle to pursue opportunities in the behavioral health sector, initially in our core, rural markets. On August 10, 2023, Myrtle was granted a license by the Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services of Tennessee to operate an alcohol and drug treatment facility in Oneida Tennessee. The facility, which is located at our Big South Fork Medical Center campus, commenced operations and began accepting patients on August 14, 2023. The facility offers alcohol and drug residential detoxification and residential rehabilitation treatment services for up to 30 patients. Myrtle began offering outpatient opiate treatment services at its Oneida facility on November 1, 2023. To date, our Myrtle operations have incurred losses and generated negative cash flow from operations and there is no assurance that our Myrtle operations will become profitable in the future, which would have a negative impact on our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

Our holding company structure makes us dependent on our subsidiaries for our cash flow and could serve to subordinate the rights of our shareholders to the rights of creditors of our subsidiaries, in the event of an insolvency or liquidation of any such subsidiary.

Our Company acts as a holding company and, accordingly, substantially all of our operations are conducted through our subsidiaries. Such subsidiaries are separate and distinct legal entities. As a result, substantially all of our cash flow depends upon the earnings of our subsidiaries. In addition, we depend on the distribution of earnings, loans or other payment by our subsidiaries. No subsidiary will have any obligation to provide our Company with funds for our payment obligations. If there is an insolvency, liquidation or other reorganization of any of our subsidiaries, our shareholders will have no right to proceed against their assets. Creditors of those subsidiaries will be entitled to payment in full for the sale or other disposal of the assets of those subsidiaries before our Company, as a shareholder, would be entitled to receive any distribution from that sale or disposal.

The Company sold several of its subsidiaries to InnovaQor, Inc. (“InnovaQor”) and has a convertible preferred stock investment in and note receivable with InnovaQor. An inability to monetize its convertible preferred stock investment and/or receive cash proceeds in connection with repayment of the note receivable could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

In June 2021, the Company sold several of its information technology related subsidiaries to InnovaQor for 14,950 shares of its Series B-1 Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock (the “InnovaQor Series B-1 Preferred Stock”). In addition, the Company has provided loans/advances to InnovaQor to fund its working capital needs; such loans are represented by a note receivable from related party in the amount of, as of December 31, 2023, $2.7 million. The Company has provided additional funds to InnovaQor since December 31, 2023 and expects to continue to do so until InnovaQor raises third-party capital. Modest liquidity in InnovaQor’s common stock continues to affect the prospects for monetization of the Company’s preferred stock investment. The Company recorded a charge of $0.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2023 as a result of the change in the fair value of the preferred stock investment. Also, any delay in InnovaQor’s ability to raise third-party capital may affect the timing of repayment of the note receivable, the liquidity of its common stock and the need for continued funding of InnovaQor by the Company. All such factors could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

The InnovaQor Series B-1 Preferred Stock and the note receivable represent a significant portion of the Company’s assets. There is no assurance that InnovaQor will be able to continue as a going concern. If that were not to happen it would have a material adverse effect on the Company.

The Company sold several of its subsidiaries to FOXO and has a convertible preferred stock investment in and notes receivable with FOXO and its subsidiaries. An inability to monetize its convertible preferred stock investment and/or receive cash proceeds in connection with repayments of the notes receivable could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

In June and September 2024, the Company sold several of its healthcare related subsidiaries to FOXO, a related party. In connection with the sale of its subsidiary, Myrtle, the Company received 1,023,629 shares of FOXO Common Stock and in connection with the sale of its subsidiary, RCHI, and the related exchange agreement, the Company received 21,000 shares of FOXO Series A Preferred Stock with a stated value of $1,000 per share. In addition, the Company has outstanding as of December 31, 2024, three notes receivable from FOXO’s subsidiaries, totaling $1.8 million. A lack of liquidity in FOXO’s Common Stock would negatively affect the prospects for monetization of the Company’s common and preferred stock investments. Also, any delay in FOXO’s ability to raise third-party capital may affect the timing of repayments of the notes receivable, the liquidity of FOXO’s Common Stock and the need for continued funding of FOXO. All such factors could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

The FOXO Common Stock, the FOXO Series A Preferred Stock and the notes receivable represent a significant portion of the Company’s assets. There is no assurance that FOXO will be able to continue as a going concern. If that were not to happen it would have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Our business has substantial indebtedness; certain of our debt instruments are in payment default and/or repayment of a related party loan has been requested. In addition, several of our debt instruments contain restrictive covenants, which may affect our operational and financial flexibility.

We currently have, and will likely continue to have, a substantial amount of indebtedness. Our indebtedness could, among other things, make it more difficult for us to satisfy our debt and other obligations, require us to use a large portion of our cash flow from operations to repay and service our debt or otherwise create liquidity problems, limit our flexibility to adjust to market conditions and place us at a competitive disadvantage. Restrictive covenants in the agreements governing our indebtedness may adversely affect us. As of December 31, 2023, we had total debt outstanding of approximately $11.4 million, of which $3.2 million was past due, including a related party loan for which repayment has been requested.

Our ability to meet our obligations depends on our future performance and capital raising activities, which will be affected by financial, business, economic and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. If our cash flow and capital resources prove inadequate to allow us to pay the principal and interest on our debt and meet our other obligations, including debt covenants, we could face substantial liquidity problems and might be required to dispose of material assets or operations, restructure or refinance our debt, which we may be unable to do on acceptable terms, and forego attractive business opportunities. In addition, the terms of our existing or future debt agreements may restrict us from pursuing any of these alternatives.

We may have a limited ability to use some or all of our net operating loss carryforwards in the future.

Under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, substantial changes in our ownership may limit the amount of net operating loss carryforwards that could be utilized annually in the future to offset our taxable income. Specifically, this limitation may arise in the event of a cumulative change in ownership of the Company of more than 50% within a three-year period. Any such annual limitation may significantly reduce the utilization of our net operating loss carryforwards before they expire. The Company has federal net operating loss carryforwards totaling approximately $84.1 million generated since 2016. It also has various state net operating loss carryforwards that begin to expire in 2033. Transactions that may occur in the future may trigger an ownership change pursuant to Section 382, and prior transactions may be deemed to have triggered an ownership change pursuant to Section 382, the result of which could limit the amount of net operating loss carryforwards that we can utilize annually to offset our taxable income, if any. The Company is reviewing whether any prior transaction may have triggered a limitation under Section 382. Any such limitation, whether as a result of a prior transaction or a transaction in the future, could have a material adverse effect on our future results of operations.

Our results of operations may be adversely affected if the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (“ACA”) is repealed, replaced or otherwise changed.

The ACA has increased the number of people with health care insurance. It also has reduced Medicare and Medicaid reimbursements. Numerous proposals continue to be discussed to repeal, amend or replace the law. We cannot predict whether any such repeal, amend or replace proposals, or any parts of them, will become law and, if they do, what their substance or timing will be. There is uncertainty whether, when and how the ACA may be changed, what alternative provisions, if any, will be enacted, the timing of enactment and implementation of any alternative provisions and the impact of any alternative provisions on providers as well as other healthcare industry participants. Efforts to repeal or change the ACA or implement other initiatives intended to reform healthcare delivery and financial systems may have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

General economic conditions.

Much healthcare spending is discretionary and can be significantly impacted by economic downturns. When patients are experiencing personal financial difficulties or have concerns about general economic conditions, they may choose to defer or forego elective surgeries and other non-emergent procedures, which are generally more profitable lines of business for hospitals. In addition, employers may impose or patients may select a high-deductible insurance plan or no insurance at all, which increases a hospital’s dependence on self-pay revenue. Moreover, a greater number of uninsured patients may seek care in our emergency rooms.

We are unable to quantify the specific impact of current or recent economic conditions on our business, however, we believe that the economic conditions in the service areas in which our hospitals operate may have an adverse impact on our operations. Such impact can be expected to continue to affect not only the healthcare decisions of our patients and potential patients but could also have an adverse impact on the solvency of certain managed care providers and other counterparties to transactions with us.

Healthcare plans have taken steps to control the utilization and reimbursement of healthcare services.

We also face efforts by non-governmental third-party payers, including healthcare plans, to reduce utilization and reimbursement for healthcare services.

The healthcare industry has experienced a trend of consolidation among healthcare insurance plans and payers, resulting in fewer but larger insurance plans with significant bargaining power to negotiate fee arrangements with healthcare providers. These healthcare plans, and independent physician associations, may demand that providers accept discounted fee structures or assume all or a portion of the financial risk associated with providing services to their members through capped payment arrangements. There are also an increasing number of patients enrolling in consumer driven products and high deductible plans that involve greater patient cost-sharing.

The increased consolidation among healthcare plans and payers increases the potential adverse impact of not being, or ceasing to be, a contracted provider with any such insurer. The ACA includes provisions, including ones regarding the creation of healthcare exchanges, which may encourage healthcare insurance plans to increase exclusive contracting.

We expect continuing efforts to reduce reimbursements, to impose more stringent cost controls and to reduce utilization of services. These efforts, including future changes in third-party payer rules, practices and policies or ceasing to be a contracted provider to many healthcare plans, have had and may continue to have a material adverse effect on our business.

Some of our operations are subject to federal and state laws prohibiting “kickbacks” and other laws designed to prohibit payments for referrals and eliminate healthcare fraud.

Federal and state anti-kickback and similar laws prohibit payment, or offers of payment, in exchange for referrals of products and services for which reimbursement may be made by Medicare or other federal and state healthcare programs. Some state laws contain similar prohibitions that apply without regard to the payer of reimbursement for the services. Under a federal statute, known as the “Stark Law” or “self-referral” prohibition, physicians, subject to certain exceptions, are prohibited from referring their Medicare or Medicaid program patients to providers with which the physicians or their immediate family members have a financial relationship, and the providers are prohibited from billing for services rendered in violation of Stark Law referral prohibitions. Violations of the federal Anti-Kickback Law and Stark Law may be punished by civil and criminal penalties, and/or exclusion from participation in federal health care programs, including Medicare and Medicaid. States may impose similar penalties. The ACA significantly strengthened provisions of the Federal False Claims Act and Anti-Kickback Law provisions, and other health care fraud provisions, leading to the possibility of greatly increased qui tam suits by private citizen “relators” for perceived violations of these laws. There can be no assurance that our activities will not come under the scrutiny of regulators and other government authorities or that our practices will not be found to violate applicable laws, rules and regulations or prompt lawsuits by private citizen relators under federal or state false claims laws. A qui tam lawsuit has been filed against the Company. See “Legal Proceedings.”

Federal officials responsible for administering and enforcing the healthcare laws and regulations have made a priority of eliminating healthcare fraud. For example, the ACA includes significant new fraud and abuse measures, including required disclosures of financial arrangements with physician customers, lower thresholds for violations and increased potential penalties for violations. Federal funding available for combating health care fraud and abuse generally has increased. While we seek to conduct our business in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, many of the laws and regulations applicable to our business, particularly those relating to billing and reimbursement of services and those relating to relationships with physicians, hospitals and patients, contain language that has not been interpreted by courts. We must rely on our interpretation of these laws and regulations based on the advice of our counsel and regulatory or law enforcement authorities may not agree with our interpretation of these laws and regulations and may seek to enforce legal remedies or penalties against us for violations.

We may need to change our operations, particularly pricing or billing practices, in response to changing interpretations of these laws and regulations, or regulatory or judicial determinations with respect to these laws and regulations. These occurrences, regardless of their outcome, could damage our reputation and harm important business relationships that we have with healthcare providers, payers and others. Furthermore, if a regulatory or judicial authority finds that we have not complied with applicable laws and regulations, we would be required to refund amounts that were billed and collected in violation of such laws and regulations. In addition, we may voluntarily refund amounts that were alleged to have been billed and collected in violation of applicable laws and regulations. In either case, we could suffer civil and criminal damages, fines and penalties, exclusion from participation in governmental healthcare programs and the loss of licenses, certificates and authorizations necessary to operate our business, as well as incur liabilities from third-party claims, all of which could harm our operating results and financial condition.

Moreover, regardless of the outcome, if we or physicians or other third parties with whom we do business are investigated by a regulatory or law enforcement authority we could incur substantial costs, including legal fees, and our management may be required to divert a substantial amount of time to an investigation.

To enhance compliance with applicable health care laws, and mitigate potential liability in the event of noncompliance, regulatory authorities, such as the OIG, have recommended the adoption and implementation of a comprehensive health care compliance program that generally contains the elements of an effective compliance and ethics program described in Section 8B2.1 of the United States Sentencing Commission Guidelines Manual, and for many years the OIG has made available a model compliance program. In addition, certain states require that health care providers that engage in substantial business under the state Medicaid program have a compliance program that generally adheres to the standards set forth in the Model Compliance Program. Also, under the ACA, HHS will require suppliers, such as the Company, to adopt, as a condition of Medicare participation, compliance programs that meet a core set of requirements. While we have adopted, or are in the process of adopting, healthcare compliance and ethics programs that generally incorporate the OIG’s recommendations, and training our applicable employees in such compliance, having such a program can be no assurance that we will avoid any compliance issues.

We conduct our business in a heavily regulated industry and changes in regulations or violations of regulations could, directly or indirectly, harm our operating results and financial condition.

The healthcare industry is highly regulated and there can be no assurance that the regulatory environment in which we operate will not change significantly and adversely in the future. Areas of the regulatory environment that may affect our ability to conduct business include, without limitation:

These laws and regulations are extremely complex and in many instances, there are no significant regulatory or judicial interpretations of these laws and regulations. Any determination that we have violated these laws or regulations, or the public announcement that we are being investigated for possible violations of these laws or regulations, could harm our operating results and financial condition. In addition, a significant change in any of these laws or regulations may require us to change our business model in order to maintain compliance with these laws or regulations, which could harm our operating results and financial condition.

Failure to comply with complex federal and state laws and regulations related to submission of claims for services can result in significant monetary damages and penalties and exclusion from the Medicare and Medicaid programs.

We are subject to extensive federal and state laws and regulations relating to the submission of claims for payment for services, including those that relate to coverage of our services under Medicare, Medicaid and other governmental health care programs, the amounts that may be billed for our services and to whom claims for services may be submitted.

Our failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations could result in our inability to receive payment for our services or result in attempts by third-party payers, such as Medicare and Medicaid, to recover payments from us that have already been made. Submission of claims in violation of certain statutory or regulatory requirements can result in penalties, including substantial civil money penalties for each item or service billed to Medicare in violation of the legal requirement, and exclusion from participation in Medicare and Medicaid. Government authorities may also assert that violations of laws and regulations related to submission or causing the submission of claims violate the federal False Claims Act (“FCA”) or other laws related to fraud and abuse, including submission of claims for services that were not medically necessary. Violations of the FCA could result in enormous economic liability. The FCA provides that all damages are trebled. For example, we could be subject to FCA liability if it was determined that the services we provided were not medically necessary and not reimbursable, particularly if it were asserted that we contributed to the physician’s referrals of unnecessary services to us. It is also possible that the government could attempt to hold us liable under fraud and abuse laws for improper claims submitted by an entity for services that we performed if we were found to have knowingly participated in the arrangement that resulted in submission of the improper claims.

Our facilities are subject to potential claims for professional liability, including existing or potential claims based on the acts or omissions of third parties, which claims may not be covered by insurance.

Our facilities are subject to potential claims for professional liability in connection with their operations, as well as potentially acquired or discontinued operations. To cover such claims, professional malpractice liability insurance and general liability insurance are maintained in amounts believed to be sufficient for operations, although some claims may exceed the scope or amount of the coverage in effect. The assertion of a significant number of claims, either within a self-insured retention (deductible) or individually or in the aggregate in excess of available insurance, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. Premiums for professional liability insurance have historically been volatile and we cannot assure you that professional liability insurance will continue to be available on terms acceptable to us, if at all. The operations of hospitals also depend on the professional services of physicians and other trained healthcare providers and technicians in the conduct of their respective operations. There can be no assurance that any legal action stemming from the act or omission of a third party provider of healthcare services would not be brought against one of our hospitals, resulting in significant legal expenses in order to defend against such legal action or to obtain a financial contribution from the third party whose acts or omissions occasioned the legal action.

Our success depends on our ability to attract and retain qualified healthcare professionals. A shortage of qualified healthcare professionals could weaken our ability to deliver healthcare services.

Our operations are dependent on the efforts, ability and experience of healthcare professionals, such as physicians, nurses, therapists, pharmacists and lab technicians. Each facility’s success has been, and will continue to be, influenced by its ability to attract and retain these skilled employees. A shortage of healthcare professionals, the loss of some or all of its key employees or the inability to attract or retain sufficient numbers of qualified healthcare professionals could cause the operating performance of one or more of our facilities to decline.

Our operations are dependent on the local economies and the surrounding areas in which they operate and are concentrated in Tennessee. A significant deterioration in those economies could cause a material adverse effect on our businesses.

Each rural facility operation is dependent upon the local economy where it is located. A significant deterioration in that economy would negatively impact the demand for the facility’s services, as well as the ability of patients and other payers to pay for service as rendered.

Our net revenues are particularly sensitive to regulatory and economic changes in Tennessee. Any change in the current demographic, economic, competitive or regulatory conditions in the state could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. Changes to the Medicaid program or other health care laws or regulations in Tennessee could also have an adverse effect.

A significant portion of our net revenues is dependent on Medicare and Medicaid payments and possible reductions in Medicare or Medicaid payments or the implementation of other measures to reduce reimbursements may reduce our revenues.

A significant portion of our net revenues is derived from the Medicare and Medicaid programs, which are highly regulated and subject to frequent and substantial changes. Previous legislative changes have resulted in, and future legislative changes may result in, limitations on and reduced levels of payment and reimbursement for a substantial portion of hospital procedures and costs.

Future healthcare legislation or other changes in the administration or interpretation of governmental healthcare programs may have a material adverse effect on our consolidated business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects.

Failure to timely or accurately bill for our services could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Billing for medical services is extremely complicated and is subject to extensive and non-uniform rules and administrative requirements. Depending on the billing arrangement and applicable law, we bill various payers, such as patients, insurance companies, Medicare, Medicaid, physicians, hospitals and employer groups. Changes in laws and regulations could increase the complexity and cost of our billing process. Additionally, auditing for compliance with applicable laws and regulations as well as internal compliance policies and procedures adds further cost and complexity to the billing process.

Missing, incomplete, or incorrect information adds complexity to and slows the billing process, creates backlogs of unbilled services, and generally increases the aging of accounts receivable and bad debt expense. Failure to timely or correctly bill may lead to our not being reimbursed for our services or an increase in the aging of our accounts receivable, which could adversely affect our results of operations and cash flows. Failure to comply with applicable laws relating to billing or even having to pay back amounts incorrectly billed and collected could lead to various penalties, including: (1) exclusion from participation in CMS and other government programs; (2) asset forfeitures; (3) civil and criminal fines and penalties; and (4) the loss of various licenses, certificates and authorizations necessary to operate our business, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or cash flows.

There have been times when our accounts receivable have increased at a greater rate than revenue growth and, therefore, have adversely affected our cash flows from operations. We have taken steps to implement systems and processing changes intended to improve billing procedures and related collection results. However, we cannot assure that our ongoing assessment of accounts receivable will not result in the need for additional provisions. Such additional provisions, if implemented, could have a material adverse effect on our operating results.

Our operations may be adversely impacted by the effects of extreme weather conditions, natural disasters such as hurricanes and earthquakes, hostilities or acts of terrorism and other criminal activities.

Our operations are always subject to adverse impacts resulting from extreme weather conditions, natural disasters, hostilities or acts of terrorism or other criminal activities. Such events may result in a temporary decline in the number of patients who seek our services or in our employees’ ability to perform their job duties. In addition, such events may temporarily interrupt our ability to provide our services. The occurrence of any such event and/or a disruption of our operations as a result may adversely affect our results of operations.

Increased competition, including price competition, could have a material adverse impact on our net revenues and profitability.

We operate in a business that is characterized by intense competition. Our major competitors include large national hospitals that possess greater name recognition, larger customer bases, and significantly greater financial resources and employ substantially more personnel than we do. Many of our competitors have long established relationships. Although Big South Fork Medical Center operates in a community where it is currently the only general acute care hospital, it faces substantial competition from other hospitals in the region. Although these competing hospitals may be many miles away, patients in these markets may travel to these competing hospitals as a result of local physician referrals, managed care plan incentives or personal choices. We cannot assure you that we will be able to compete successfully with such entities in the future.

The healthcare business is intensely competitive both in terms of price and service. Pricing of services is often one of the most significant factors used by patients, health care providers and third-party payers in selecting a provider. As a result of the healthcare industry undergoing significant consolidation, larger providers are able to increase cost efficiencies. This consolidation results in greater price competition. We may be unable to increase cost efficiencies sufficiently, if at all, and as a result, our net earnings and cash flows could be negatively impacted by such price competition. We may also face competition from companies that do not comply with existing laws or regulations or otherwise disregard compliance standards in the industry. Additionally, we may also face changes in fee schedules, competitive bidding for services or other actions or pressures reducing payment schedules as a result of increased or additional competition. Additional competition, including price competition, could have a material adverse impact on our net revenues and profitability.

Sustained inflation could increase our costs of operations.

The healthcare industry is very labor intensive and salaries and benefits are subject to inflationary pressures, as are supply and other costs. Furthermore, we are unable to predict whether recent inflationary spikes, which were initially thought to be transitory and due to pandemic recovery related demand, labor shortages in selected markets, and supply chain issues, will continue for an extended period of time. Substantially increased costs of personnel, goods, and services could have an adverse effect on our results of operations if we are unable to pass such costs along to patients. The concentration of our patients in persons for whom the cost of treatment is paid for under government programs could substantially limit our ability to pass through such costs.

Failure to maintain the security of patient-related information or compliance with security requirements could damage the Company’s reputation with patients and cause it to incur substantial additional costs and to become subject to litigation.

Pursuant to HIPAA and certain similar state laws, we must comply with comprehensive privacy and security standards with respect to the use and disclosure of protected health information. Under the HITECH amendments to HIPAA, HIPAA was expanded to require certain data breach notifications, to extend certain HIPAA privacy and security standards directly to business associates, to heighten penalties for noncompliance and to enhance enforcement efforts. If the Company does not comply with existing or new laws and regulations relating to protecting the privacy and security of personal or health information, it could be subject to monetary fines, civil penalties or criminal sanctions.

The Company receives certain personal and financial information about its patients. In addition, the Company depends upon the secure transmission of confidential information over public networks, including information permitting cashless payments. While we take reasonable and prudent steps to protect this information, a compromise in the Company’s security systems that results in patient personal information being obtained by unauthorized persons or the Company’s failure to comply with security requirements for financial transactions could adversely affect the Company’s reputation with its customers and others, as well as the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and liquidity. It could also result in litigation against the Company or the imposition of penalties.

Failure of the Company to comply with emerging electronic transmission standards could adversely affect our business.

The failure of our IT systems to keep pace with technological advances may significantly reduce our revenues or increase our expenses. Public and private initiatives to create healthcare information technology (“HCIT”) standards and to mandate standardized clinical coding systems for the electronic exchange of clinical information could require costly modifications to our existing HCIT systems. While we do not expect HCIT standards to be adopted or implemented without adequate time to comply, if we fail to adopt or delay in implementing HCIT standards, we could lose customers and business opportunities.

Compliance with the HIPAA security regulations and privacy regulations may increase the Company’s costs.

The HIPAA privacy and security regulations, including the expanded requirements under HITECH, establish comprehensive federal standards with respect to the use and disclosure of protected health information by health plans, healthcare providers and healthcare clearinghouses, in addition to setting standards to protect the confidentiality, integrity and security of protected health information. The regulations establish a complex regulatory framework on a variety of subjects, including:

The Company has implemented policies and procedures related to compliance with the HIPAA privacy and security regulations, as required by law. The privacy and security regulations establish a “floor” and do not supersede state laws that are more stringent. Therefore, the Company is required to comply with both federal privacy and security regulations and varying state privacy and security laws. In addition, for healthcare data transfers from other countries relating to citizens of those countries, the Company may also be required to comply with the laws of those other countries. The federal privacy regulations restrict the Company’s ability to use or disclose patient identifiable data, without patient authorization, for purposes other than payment, treatment or healthcare operations (as defined by HIPAA), except for disclosures for various public policy purposes and other permitted purposes outlined in the privacy regulations. HIPAA, as amended by HITECH, provides for significant fines and other penalties for wrongful use or disclosure of protected health information in violation of the privacy and security regulations, including potential civil and criminal fines and penalties. Due to the enactment of HITECH and an increase in the amount of monetary financial penalties, government enforcement has also increased. It is not possible to predict what the extent of the impact on business will be, other than heightened scrutiny and emphasis on compliance. If the Company does not comply with existing or new laws and regulations related to protecting the privacy and security of health information it could be subject to significant monetary fines, civil penalties or criminal sanctions. In addition, other federal and state laws that protect the privacy and security of patient information may be subject to enforcement and interpretations by various governmental authorities and courts resulting in complex compliance issues. For example, the Company could incur damages under state laws pursuant to an action brought by a private party for the wrongful use or disclosure of confidential health information or other private personal information.

Failure in the Company’s information technology systems or delays or failures in the development and implementation of updates or enhancements to those systems could significantly delay billing and otherwise disrupt the Company’s operations or patient relationships.

The Company’s business and patient relationships depend, in part, on the continued performance of its information technology systems. Despite network security measures and other precautions, the Company’s information technology systems are potentially vulnerable to physical or electronic break-ins, computer viruses and similar disruptions. Sustained system failures or interruption of the Company’s systems in one or more of its operations could disrupt the Company’s ability to conduct its business. Breaches with respect to protected health information could result in violations of HIPAA and analogous state laws, and risk the imposition of significant fines and penalties. Failure of the Company’s information technology systems could adversely affect the Company’s business, profitability and financial condition.

Health care reform and related programs (e.g. Health Insurance Exchanges), changes in government payment and reimbursement systems, or changes in payer mix, including an increase in capitated reimbursement mechanisms and evolving delivery models, could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s net revenues, profitability and cash flow.

Our services are billed to private patients, Medicare, Medicaid, commercial clients, managed care organizations (“MCOs”) and third-party insurance companies. Bills may be sent to different payers depending on the medical insurance benefits of a particular patient. Increases in the percentage of services billed to government and managed care payers could have an adverse impact on the Company’s net revenues.

A portion of the third-party insurance fee-for-service revenues are collectible from patients in the form of deductibles, copayments and coinsurance. As patient cost-sharing increases, collectability may be impacted.

In addition, Medicare and Medicaid and private insurers have increased their efforts to control the cost, utilization and delivery of health care services. Measures to regulate health care delivery have resulted in reduced prices, added costs and decreased utilization as well as increased complexity and new regulatory and administrative requirements. Changes to, or repeal of, the ACA, the health care reform legislation passed in 2010, also may continue to affect coverage, reimbursement and utilization of services, as well as administrative requirements, in ways that are currently unpredictable.

The Company expects efforts to impose reduced reimbursement, more stringent payment policies and utilization and cost controls by government and other payers to continue. If the Company cannot offset additional reductions in the payments it receives for its services by reducing costs, increasing the number of patients treated and/or introducing new procedures, it could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s net revenues, profitability and cash flows.

As an employer, health care reform legislation also contains numerous regulations that will require the Company to implement significant process and record keeping changes to be in compliance. These changes increase the cost of providing healthcare coverage to employees and their families. Given the limited release of regulations to guide compliance, as well as potential changes to or repeal of the ACA, the exact impact to employers including the Company is uncertain.

Adverse results in material litigation matters or governmental inquiries could have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s business and financial condition.

The Company may become subject in the ordinary course of business to material legal action related to, among other things, professional liability, contracts and employee-related matters, as well as inquiries and requests for information from governmental agencies and bodies and Medicare or Medicaid payors requesting comment and/or information on allegations of billing irregularities, billing and pricing arrangements, privacy practices and other matters that are brought to their attention through billing audits or third parties. The healthcare industry is subject to substantial Federal and state government regulation and audit. Legal actions could result in substantial monetary damages as well as damage to the Company’s reputation with customers, which could have a material adverse effect upon its business.

As a company with limited capital and human resources, we anticipate that more of management’s time and attention will be diverted from our business to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements than would be the case with a company that has well established controls and procedures. This diversion of management’s time and attention may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

In the event we identify significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting that we cannot remediate in a timely manner, or if we are unable to receive a positive attestation from our independent registered public accounting firm with respect to our internal control over financial reporting when we are required to do so, investors and others may lose confidence in the reliability of our financial statements. If this occurs, the trading price of our common stock, if any, and ability to obtain any necessary equity or debt financing could suffer. Presently, our auditors are not required to audit internal controls over financial reporting. However, if in the future such a requirement arises, and in the event that our independent registered public accounting firm is unable to rely on our internal control over financial reporting in connection with its audit of our financial statements, and in the further event that it is unable to devise alternative procedures in order to satisfy itself as to the material accuracy of our financial statements and related disclosures, we may be unable to file our periodic reports with the SEC. This would likely have an adverse effect on the trading price of our common stock, if any, and our ability to secure any necessary additional financing, and could result in the delisting of our common stock. In such event, the liquidity of our common stock would be severely limited and the market price of our common stock would likely decline significantly.

Failure to achieve and maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting may result in our not being able to accurately report our financial results. As a result, current and potential shareholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which would harm our business and the trading price of our common stock.

Our management has determined that as of December 31, 2023, we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting based on criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework as a result of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. If the results of our remediation efforts regarding our material weaknesses are not successful, or if additional material weaknesses or significant deficiencies are identified in our internal control over financial reporting, our management will be unable to report favorably as to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and/or our disclosure controls and procedures, and we could be required to further implement expensive and time-consuming remedial measures and potentially lose investor confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports, which could have an adverse effect on our stock price and potentially subject us to litigation.

An inability to attract and retain experienced and qualified personnel could adversely affect the Company’s business.

The loss of key management personnel or the inability to attract and retain experienced and qualified employees by the Company could adversely affect the business. The success of the Company is dependent in part on the efforts of key members of its management team.

Provisions of Delaware law and our organizational documents may discourage takeovers and business combinations that our stockholders may consider in their best interests, which could negatively affect our stock price.

Provisions of Delaware law and our certificate of incorporation and bylaws may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company or deterring tender offers for our common stock that other stockholders may consider in their best interests.

Our certificate of incorporation authorizes us to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more different series with terms to be fixed by our Board of Directors. Stockholder approval is not necessary to issue preferred stock in this manner. Issuance of these shares of preferred stock could have the effect of making it more difficult and more expensive for a person or group to acquire control of us and could effectively be used as an anti-takeover device.

Our bylaws provide for an advance notice procedure for stockholders to nominate director candidates for election or to bring business before an annual meeting of stockholders, including proposed nominations of persons for election to our Board of Directors, and require that special meetings of stockholders be called only by our chairman of the board, chief executive officer, president or the board pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the board.

The anti-takeover provisions of Delaware law and provisions in our organizational documents may prevent our stockholders from receiving the benefit from any premium to the market price of our common stock offered by a bidder in a takeover context. Even in the absence of a takeover attempt, the existence of these provisions may adversely affect the prevailing market price of our common stock if they are viewed as discouraging takeover attempts in the future.

As a public company, we incur significant administrative workload and expenses.

As a public company, we must comply with various laws, regulations and requirements, including certain provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as rules implemented by the SEC. Complying with these statutes, regulations and requirements, including our public company reporting requirements, continues to occupy a significant amount of the time of our Board of Directors and management and involves significant accounting, legal and other expenses. We may need to hire additional accounting personnel to handle these responsibilities, which will increase our operating costs. Furthermore, these laws, regulations and requirements could make it more difficult or more costly for us to obtain certain types of insurance. The impact of these requirements could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our Board of Directors, our board committees or as executive officers.

New laws and regulations as well as changes to existing laws and regulations affecting public companies, including the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and rules adopted by the SEC, would likely result in increased costs to us as we respond to their requirements. We are investing resources to comply with evolving laws and regulations, and this investment may result in increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management’s time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities.

We have used our convertible preferred stock for the exchange/repayment of debt and to raise capital. Going forward, we may use our stock to pay, to a large extent, for future acquisitions or we may continue to use our stock for the exchange/repayment of debt and to raise capital, which has been and would continue to be dilutive to investors.

In the past we have used our convertible preferred stock for the exchange/repayment of debt and to raise capital, which as a result of the conversions of the preferred stock into a variable number of shares of our common stock, has resulted in significant dilution of our common stock. Going forward, we may choose to use additional preferred or common stock to pay, to a large extent, for future acquisitions or for additional exchanges/repayments of debt and to raise capital, and believe that doing so will enable us to retain a greater portion of our cash flows to fund operations and to obtain cash to fund our operations. Price fluctuations in our stock might negatively impact our ability to effectively use our stock to pay for acquisitions or could cause us to offer stock as consideration for acquisitions on terms that are not favorable to us and our stockholders. If we issued shares of our convertible preferred stock or our common stock in lieu of cash as consideration for acquisitions or in exchange/repayment of debt or to raise capital under unfavorable circumstances, it may result in significant dilution to investors.

The holders of our Series M Convertible Preferred Stock have, in the aggregate, votes equal to 51% of the Company’s voting securities and the holders of the Series M Convertible Preferred Stock have granted an irrevocable proxy to our Chief Executive Officer.

During 2020, the Company issued its Series M Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series M Preferred Stock”). Regardless of the number of shares of Series M Preferred Stock outstanding and so long as at least one share of Series M Preferred Stock is outstanding, the outstanding shares of Series M Preferred Stock shall have the number of votes, in the aggregate, equal to 51% of all votes entitled to be voted at any meeting of stockholders or action by written consent. This means that the holders of Series M Preferred Stock have sufficient votes, by themselves, to approve or defeat any proposal voted on by the Company’s stockholders, unless there is a supermajority required under applicable law or by agreement. Holders of our common stock, therefore, will not have any control on issues submitted to a vote of stockholders.

Mr. Diamantis, a former member of our Board of Directors, owns all of the outstanding Series M Preferred Stock. On August 13, 2020, he granted an irrevocable proxy to vote the Series M Preferred Stock to Seamus Lagan, the Chief Executive Officer, President and Interim Chief Financial Officer of the Company. As a result, Mr. Lagan controls a majority of the voting securities of the Company.

We do not intend to pay cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our common stock and certain of our financing agreements, while outstanding, prohibit us from declaring or paying cash dividends without approval, which may not be granted. In addition, we anticipate that we will retain our earnings, if any, for future growth and therefore do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. The terms of certain series of our Preferred Stock also preclude the payment of cash dividends on our common stock unless dividends are paid on such Preferred Stock. Accordingly, our stockholders will not realize a return on their investment unless the trading price of our common stock appreciates, which is uncertain and unpredictable.

Our common stock is subject to substantial dilution by exercises of warrants and conversions or exercises of other securities into common stock.

The Company has outstanding warrants, stock options, convertible preferred stock and convertible debentures. Exercise of the warrants and stock options and conversions of the convertible preferred stock and debentures could result in substantial dilution of our common stock and a decline in its market price. In addition, the terms of certain of the warrants, convertible preferred stock and convertible debentures issued by us provide for reductions in the per share exercise prices of the warrants and the per share conversion prices of the debentures and preferred stock (if applicable and subject to a floor in certain cases), in the event that we issue common stock or common stock equivalents (as that term is defined in the agreements) at an effective exercise/conversion price that is less than the then exercise/conversion prices of the outstanding warrants, preferred stock or debentures, as the case may be. These provisions, as well as the issuances of debentures and preferred stock with conversion prices that vary based upon the price of our common stock on the date of conversion, have resulted in significant dilution of our common stock and have given rise to reverse splits of our common stock.

The following table presents the dilutive effect of our various potential shares of common stock as of December 31, 2023:

Continued conversions of the Company’s outstanding securities into common stock may further depress the market price of our common stock. Subsequent to December 31, 2023 and through December 31, 2024, 2.5 billion common stock warrants were exercised and 508.8 billion outstanding common stock warrants expired by their terms, including 101.3 common stock warrants with expiration dates that were extended on March 21, 2024. As a result, as of February 4, 2025, the total potentially dilutive shares of common stock, including outstanding common stock, was 424.2 billion.

The sale of a substantial amount of our common stock, including resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon the conversions of preferred stock and convertible debentures and the exercise of the outstanding warrants in the public market could adversely affect the prevailing market price of our common stock.

Sales of substantial amounts of shares of our common stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales might occur, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock, and the market value of our other securities.

In the future, we may issue additional shares of common stock or other equity or debt securities convertible into common stock in connection with a financing, acquisition, litigation settlement, employee arrangement, or otherwise. Any such issuance could result in substantial dilution to our existing stockholders and could cause our stock price to decline.

Management is responsible for the day-to-day handling of risks facing our Company, while the Board of Directors, as a whole and through its Audit Committee, oversees risk management, including cybersecurity risks.

We have a risk oversight committee, which is comprised of representatives from our operations management team, information technology and compliance functions. The committee assesses risks based on probability and potential impact on key business systems and processes. We have implemented multiple layers of security measures designed to protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability of our data. In addition, we engage a third-party service provider to actively monitor potential threats as well as our security defenses. The effectiveness of the cyber and information security program is tested through a combination of internal and external assessments. Updates are provided to senior management and the Audit Committee.

We have established processes to assess risks from cybersecurity threats, monitor our information systems for potential vulnerabilities, and test those systems pursuant to our cybersecurity policies, processes, and practices, which are integrated into our overall risk management program. In an effort to protect our information systems from cybersecurity threats, we have implemented information security and incident response policies as well as operating procedures. We also use various security tools that are designed to help us identify risks from cybersecurity threats, and escalate, investigate, resolve, and recover from cybersecurity incidents in a timely manner.

We face several cybersecurity risks in connection with our business. While cybersecurity threats, including those resulting from any previous cybersecurity incidents, have not materially affected, and we do not believe they are reasonably likely to materially affect, our Company, including our business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition, to date, we have, like other companies in our industry, from time to time, experienced threats and cybersecurity incidents relating to our, and our third-party vendors’, data and information systems. However, there can be no assurance that our controls and procedures in place to monitor and mitigate the risks of cyber threats, including the remediation of critical information security and software vulnerabilities, will be sufficient and/or timely and that we will not suffer material losses or consequences in the future. Additionally, we do not have in place insurance coverage designed to address certain aspects of cyber risks.

The table below summarizes certain information as to our principal facilities:

We believe that each of our facilities is adequately equipped for its currently foreseeable level of operations.

From time to time, the Company may be involved in a variety of claims, lawsuits, investigations and proceedings related to contractual disputes, employment matters, regulatory and compliance matters, intellectual property rights and other litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company operates in a highly regulated industry which may inherently lend itself to legal matters. Management is aware that litigation has associated costs and that results of adverse litigation verdicts could have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. The Company’s policy is to expense legal fees and expenses incurred in connection with the legal proceedings in the period in which the expense is incurred. Management, in consultation with legal counsel, has addressed known assertions and predicted unasserted claims below.

Biohealth Medical Laboratory, Inc. and PB Laboratories, LLC (the “Companies”), subsidiaries of Rennova, filed suit against CIGNA Health in 2015 alleging that CIGNA failed to pay claims for laboratory services the Companies provided to patients pursuant to CIGNA-issued and CIGNA-administered plans. In 2016, the U.S. District Court dismissed part of the Companies’ claims for lack of standing. The Companies appealed that decision to the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals, which in late 2017 reversed the District Court’s decision and found that the Companies have standing to raise claims arising out of traditional insurance plans, as well as self-funded plans. In July 2019, the Companies and EPIC filed suit against CIGNA Health for failure to pay claims for laboratory services provided. Cigna Health, in turn, sued for alleged improper billing practices. Because the Company did not have the financial resources to see the legal action to conclusion it assigned the benefit, if any, from the suit to Chris Diamantis, a former member of Rennova’s Board of Directors, for his financial support to the Company and assumption of all costs to carry the case to conclusion.

On November 4, 2024, a jury in the United States District Court for the District of Connecticut awarded no amounts to the Companies and EPIC in connection with the lawsuit and an aggregate of $7.3 million to Cigna Health in connection with the lawsuit brought by Cigna Health against the Companies and EPIC. The Companies and EPIC are currently considering their options which may include motions to the court, appeals and/or other legal remedies available to them. The Companies and EPIC are non-operating subsidiaries of Rennova. Management believes the likelihood of collection of such verdict is remote and, therefore, the verdict is likely not material to the current and future operations or financial condition of Rennova, but there can be no assurances that the verdict, or a portion thereof, will not be paid at some point. Any payments could be materially adverse to the financial condition of Rennova. The above amount has been recognized as a liability in the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

On September 27, 2016, a tax warrant was issued against the Company by the Florida Department of Revenue (the “DOR”) for unpaid 2014 state income taxes in the approximate amount of $0.9 million, including penalties and interest. The Company entered into a Stipulation Agreement with the DOR allowing the Company to make monthly installments until July 2019. The Company made payments to reduce the amount owed but did not discharge the liability in full. In March 2024, the Company entered into a Stipulation Agreement with the DOR. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company agreed to pay $645,909 in 11 monthly payments of $15,000 beginning in March 2024 with a final payment of $480,909 due on February 18, 2025. The Company has not made the required payments to discharge this liability and has accrued $0.6 million for this liability in the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2023.

On December 7, 2016, the holders of the Tegal Notes filed suit against the Company seeking payment for the amounts due under the notes and accrued interest. On April 23, 2018, the holders of the Tegal Notes received a judgment against the Company in the amount of $384,384 plus post-judgment interest. On June 1, 2023, the Company and the holders of the Tegal Notes agreed to settle all amounts owed pursuant to the judgment for a total of $462,500 comprised of an initial payment of $200,000 followed by six monthly payments of $43,750. The Company has made all required payments and as of December 31, 2023, it has discharged this liability in full.

In July 2019, CHSPSC, the former owners of Jamestown Regional Medical Center, obtained judgments against the Company of $1.3 million. The Company has recorded these judgments as liabilities as of December 31, 2023. On February 6, 2024, the Company and CHSPSC entered into a settlement agreement whereby the Company agreed to make periodic payments totaling $705,000 through September 2026 in full satisfaction of such judgments. The Company agreed to make an initial payment of $100,000 in February 2024 and monthly payments of $15,000 through September 2026 with additional payments of $85,000 in February 2025 and $55,000 in February 2026. To date, all required payments have not been made.

A sealed qui tam lawsuit in the US District Court for the Southern District of Florida against the Company was filed in July 2021. This lawsuit was unsealed in November 2022 and Clifford Barron disclosed as the Plaintiff-Relator (whistleblower) who asserted violations of the False Claims Act. Clifford Barron was an employee of CollabRx, Inc. (a San Francisco based, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company) until early 2018. Following his resignation on January 17, 2018, Clifford Barron sought and received a judgment against the Company for approximately $253,000 he claimed was owed to him by the CollabRx subsidiary for severance and payment of COBRA. On receiving the judgment, he collected all monies owed to him under this judgment, including from the Company’s rural healthcare operations in Tennessee with which he was not involved. Payments included approximately $164,000 secured from hospital operating and other bank accounts by garnishments initiated by Jonathan Swann Taylor of Taylor & Knight, GP, Knoxville Tennessee, on behalf of Clifford Barron in May 2022. Clifford Barron has not been an employee of any subsidiary of the Company since January 2018, is not involved with the Company and has no knowledge of the Company’s operations, financial status, or controls. On November 21, 2022, the Company was advised that the U.S. Department of Justice was intervening in the action filed by the Plaintiff-Relator, Clifford Barron and requested repayment of HHS Provider Relief Funds that certain subsidiaries of the Company obtained and other relief. The Company retained the services of a specialist third-party accounting firm to complete a forensic review of the expenditure of all monies expended since the receipt of HHS Provider Relief Funds. It was discovered that certain filing requirements of the Company’s operating subsidiaries were incomplete or contained errors that did not accurately reflect the expenditure of HHS Provider Relief Funds received. The Company disputed the allegations made in the False Claims Act complaint and believes that the forensic review of funds expended addressed the lawsuit and demonstrated adherence with the applicable rules for use of HHS Provider Relief Funds. The Company completed a court ordered mediation with the Department of Justice in October 2024 and completed a settlement agreement in January 2025. The defendants, Jamestown TN Medical Center, Jellico Medical Center and the Company agreed to pay to the United States a total of $1,200,000 to resolve all claims raised by the United States related to the payments received. The settlement agreement is neither an admission of liability by the defendants nor a concession by the United States that its claims were not well founded. The settlement payment will be made over four years. In settling the claims the Company considered the cost and risk of continued litigation and trial and believes that settlement as agreed was a good business decision for the defendants.

Not applicable.

PART II

Since October 25, 2017, our common stock has been traded on the OTC Pink under the symbol “RNVA”. The following table sets forth the high and low closing sales prices per share of our common stock as reported for the periods indicated, as adjusted to reflect reverse stock splits. Such quotations represent inter-dealer prices without retail markup, markdown or commissions and may not necessarily represent actual transactions. On January 31, 2025, the closing price for our common stock as reported on the OTC Pink was $0.0001 per share.

As of January 31, 2025, there were two stockholders of record of our common stock, which excludes stockholders whose shares were held in nominee or street name by brokers.

Voting Agreement

Mr. Diamantis, a former member of our Board of Directors, is the holder of our Series M Preferred Stock. On August 13, 2020, Mr. Diamantis entered into a Voting Agreement and Irrevocable Proxy (the “Voting Agreement”) with the Company, Seamus Lagan and Alcimede LLC (of which Mr. Lagan, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, is the sole manager) pursuant to which Mr. Diamantis granted an irrevocable proxy to Mr. Lagan to vote the Series M Preferred Stock held by Mr. Diamantis. Mr. Diamantis has retained all other rights under the Series M Preferred Stock. Regardless of the number of shares of Series M Preferred Stock outstanding and so long as at least one share of Series M Preferred Stock is outstanding, the outstanding shares of Series M Preferred Stock shall have the number of votes, in the aggregate, equal to 51% of all votes entitled to be voted at any meeting of stockholders or action by written consent. This means that the holders of Series M Preferred Stock have sufficient votes, by themselves, to approve or defeat any proposal voted on by the Company’s stockholders, unless there is a supermajority required under applicable law or by agreement.

Dividend Policy

Holders of the Company’s common stock are entitled to dividends when, as, and if declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available therefor. The holders of the Rennova Series H Convertible Preferred Stock receive dividends at the same time any dividend is paid on shares of common stock in an amount equal to the amount such holder would have received if such shares of preferred stock were converted into common stock. Except for stock dividends, the holder of Rennova’s Series L Convertible Preferred Stock is not entitled to receive dividends on its shares. For each of Rennova’s Series M Preferred Stock, Series N Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock, Series O Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock and Series P Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock, dividends at the rate per annum of 10% of the stated value per share accrue on each outstanding share from and after the date of the original issuance of such share. Such accruing dividends accrue from day to day, whether or not declared, and are cumulative and non-compounding, provided, however, that such accruing dividends are payable only when, as and if declared by the Company’s Board of Directors. No cash dividends may be paid on the common stock unless these accruing dividends are paid.

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock, nor do we anticipate any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Certain of our financing agreements prohibit the payment of cash dividends.

The Company intends to retain earnings, if any, to finance the development and expansion of its business. Future dividend policy will be subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors and will be contingent upon future earnings, if any, the Company’s financial condition, capital requirements, general business conditions, restrictions under the Company’s financing agreements and other factors. Therefore, there can be no assurance that any dividends of any kind will ever be paid on the Company’s common stock.

Equity Compensation Plan Information

The Company’s 2007 Equity Participation Plan (“2007 Equity Plan”), as amended, became available upon the completion of the Merger and terminated in September 2017. Grants made prior to the date of termination will remain outstanding until exercised, forfeited or expired pursuant to the terms of each grant.

The following table provides information regarding the status of our existing equity compensation plans at December 31, 2023:

Overview

Rennova Health, Inc. is the result of a merger between two public companies, Medytox Solutions, Inc. and CollabRx, Inc., in November 2015. Medytox Solutions, Inc. (“Medytox”) was organized on July 20, 2005 under the laws of the State of Nevada. On November 2, 2015, pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 15, 2015, by and among CollabRx, Inc. (“CollabRx”), CollabRx Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of CollabRx formed for the purpose of the merger, and Medytox, Merger Sub merged with and into Medytox, with Medytox as the surviving company and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of CollabRx (the “Merger”). Prior to closing, the Company amended its certificate of incorporation to change its name to Rennova Health, Inc. This transaction was accounted for as a reverse merger in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and, as such, the historical financial statements of Medytox became the historical financial statements of the Company.

Unless otherwise noted, the following Management’s Discussion and Analysis is based on our operations as of December 31, 2023. Subsequent to December 31, 2023, we sold certain of our healthcare businesses as more fully discussed below under the heading, “Recent Events.”

Our Services

We are a provider of health care services. We own one operating hospital in Oneida, Tennessee and a hospital located in Jamestown, Tennessee that we plan to reopen, and operate. In addition, the Company owns a subsidiary providing services in the behavioral health sector on the campus of its hospital in Oneida, Tennessee. The Company’s operations consist of only one segment.

Operations

Scott County Community Hospital (d/b/a Big South Fork Medical Center)

On January 13, 2017, we acquired certain assets related to Scott County Community Hospital, based in Oneida, Tennessee (the “Oneida Assets”). The Oneida Assets include a 52,000-square foot hospital building and 6,300-square foot professional building on approximately 4.3 acres. Scott County Community Hospital has 25 beds, a 24/7 emergency department and a laboratory that provides a range of diagnostic services. Scott County Community Hospital closed in July 2016 in connection with the bankruptcy filing of its then parent company, Pioneer Health Services, Inc. We acquired the Oneida Assets out of bankruptcy for a purchase price of $1.0 million. The hospital, which has since been renamed Big South Fork Medical Center, became operational on August 8, 2017. The hospital became certified as a Critical Access Hospital (rural) hospital in December 2021, retroactive to June 30, 2021.

Myrtle Recovery Centers, Inc.

In the second quarter of 2022, we formed a subsidiary, Myrtle Recovery Centers, Inc. (“Myrtle”), to pursue opportunities in the behavioral health sector, initially in our core, rural markets. We are leveraging our existing physical locations and corporate and regional infrastructure to offer behavioral health services, including substance abuse treatment. Services are provided on either an inpatient, residential basis or an outpatient basis.

On August 10, 2023, Myrtle was granted a license by the Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services of Tennessee to operate an alcohol and drug treatment facility in Oneida, Tennessee. The facility, which is located at Rennova’s Big South Fork Medical Center campus, commenced operations and began accepting patients on August 14, 2023. The facility offers alcohol and drug residential detoxification and residential rehabilitation treatment services for up to 30 patients. On November 1, 2023, Myrtle began accepting patients at its recently opened Nonresidential Office-Based Opiate Treatment Facility (“OBOT”). The OBOT is located adjacent to Myrtle’s alcohol and drug treatment facility in Oneida, Tennessee and supplements the existing residential rehabilitation and detoxification services offered at Myrtle.

On April 11, 2023, Myrtle sold shares of its common stock equivalent to a 1.961% ownership stake in the subsidiary for de minimis value to an unaffiliated individual licensed as a physician in Tennessee. The shares have certain transfer restrictions, including the right of the subsidiary to transfer the shares to another physician licensed in Tennessee for de minimis value. The shares were sold to the individual for Tennessee healthcare regulatory reasons.

Jamestown Regional Medical Center

On June 1, 2018, we acquired from Community Health Systems, Inc. certain assets related to an acute care hospital located in Jamestown, Tennessee, referred to as Jamestown Regional Medical Center, for a purchase price of $0.7 million. The hospital is an 85-bed facility of approximately 90,000-square feet on over eight acres of land, which offered a 24-hour emergency department with two trauma bays and seven private exam rooms, inpatient and outpatient medical services and a progressive care unit which provided telemetry services. The acquisition also included a separate physician practice known as Mountain View Physician Practice, Inc.

The Company suspended operations at the hospital and physician practice in June 2019, due to the termination of the hospital’s Medicare agreement and other factors. The Company is evaluating whether to reopen the facility as an acute care hospital or as another type of healthcare facility. Jamestown is located 38 miles west of Big South Fork Medical Center.

CarePlus Clinic

On March 5, 2019, we acquired certain assets related to an outpatient clinic located in Williamsburg, Kentucky, known as CarePlus Clinic. The clinic and its associated assets, which were acquired from CarePlus Rural Health Clinic, LLC, offered compassionate care in a modern, patient-friendly facility. The CarePlus Clinic was located 32 miles northwest of our Big South Fork Medical Center. On January 31, 2024, the Company closed the CarePlus Clinic.

Recent Events

On June 10, 2024, we entered into two stock exchange agreements, each with FOXO Technologies Inc. (“FOXO”).

Sale of Myrtle Under First Stock Exchange Agreement

The first agreement with FOXO, dated June 10, 2024 (the “Myrtle Agreement”), provided for the exchange of all of our equity interest in Myrtle for $0.5 million, payable in shares of FOXO’s Class A Common Stock (the “FOXO Common Stock”). This transaction closed on June 14, 2024. On June 25, 2024, the parties to the Myrtle Agreement entered into a Consent and Waiver (the “Consent and Waiver”), pursuant to which FOXO issued to us 1,023,629 shares of FOXO Common Stock on July 17, 2024 (which was the date of approval of the NYSE American, upon which the FOXO Common Stock is listed). Such shares represented $0.2 million of the purchase price. Pursuant to the Consent and Waiver, the remainder of the purchase price of $0.3 million is represented by a promissory note issued to us by FOXO. The promissory note is non-interest bearing, is due on demand and is payable in cash or, upon receipt of required approval of the issuance under the rules of the NYSE American, in shares of FOXO Common Stock.

In addition to the $0.3 million promissory note issued to us by FOXO for a portion of the purchase price of Myrtle, which is discussed above, Myrtle issued to us a note payable dated June 13, 2024, in the original principal amount of $1.6 million, which represented the amount Myrtle owed to us at the time of the sale of Myrtle to FOXO. The note is non-interest bearing, except if not paid by the maturity date of December 31, 2024, in which case the note will bear interest at 18% per annum. The Company is in discussions with FOXO about extending the maturity of the note.

Sale of Rennova Community Health, Inc. (“RCHI”) Under Second Stock Exchange Agreement

The second agreement with FOXO, also dated June 10, 2024 (the “RCHI Agreement”), provided for us to exchange all of the outstanding shares of our subsidiary RCHI, including RCHI’s wholly-owned subsidiary Scott County Community Hospital, Inc. (“SCCH”), for 20,000 shares of FOXO’s to be authorized Series A Cumulative Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “FOXO Series A Preferred Stock”). Closing of the RCHI Agreement was subject to a number of conditions. On September 10, 2024, the parties to the RCHI Agreement entered into an Amended and Restated Securities Exchange Agreement (the “Amendment”) which revised the consideration payable to us from shares of FOXO Series A Preferred Stock to $100. In addition, RCHI issued to the Company a senior secured note in the principal amount of $22.0 million (subject to adjustment) (the “RCHI Note”). The RCHI Note matured on September 10, 2026 and accrued interest on any outstanding principal amount at the rate of 8% per annum for the first six months, increasing to 12% per annum thereafter. After maturity, interest accrued at a rate of 20% per annum. The RCHI Note required principal repayments equal to 10% of the free cash flow (net cash from operations less capital expenditures) from RCHI and SCCH.

The RCHI Note was guaranteed by FOXO and SCCH, pursuant to the terms of a Guaranty Agreement (the “Guaranty”). The RCHI Note was also secured by the assets of RCHI and SCCH pursuant to a Security and Pledge Agreement (the “RCHI Pledge Agreement”) and by the “Collateral” owned by FOXO as provided in the Security and Pledge Agreement with FOXO (the “FOXO Pledge Agreement”). The Amendment also provided that we may at any time request that FOXO seek approval of its shareholders of the issuance of FOXO Common Stock upon conversion in full of the shares of FOXO Series A Preferred Stock issuable upon exchange of the RCHI Note. At any time after receipt of such approval, the Company shall have the option to exchange, in whole or in part, the RCHI Note for shares of FOXO Series A Preferred Stock. Upon any such exchange, the Company will receive the equivalent of $1.00 stated value of FOXO Series A Preferred Stock for each $1.00 of the aggregate of principal and accrued and unpaid interest, liquidated damages and/or redemption proceeds (or any other amounts owing under the RCHI Note) being exchanged. On December 5, 2024, we entered into an Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with FOXO and RCHI. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, $21.0 million of the principal of the RCHI Note was exchanged for 21,000 shares of FOXO Series A Preferred Stock. Upon the closing of the Exchange Agreement, RCHI executed a new senior secured promissory note payable to us in the principal amount of $1.0 million on the same terms as the RCHI Note (the “New Note”). The New Note matures on June 5, 2025.

Outlook

We currently operate one hospital and an alcohol and drug treatment and OBOT facility. We also own another hospital at which operations are currently suspended. Owning a number of facilities in the same geographic location will create numerous efficiencies in management, purchasing and staffing and will enable the provision of additional, specialized and more valuable services that are needed by rural communities but cannot be sustained by a standalone facility.

Impact of the Pandemic

Demand for services at our hospitals was substantially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Moreover, the pandemic affected our ability to maintain adequate healthcare staffing levels which put pressure on salaries and wages and the need for higher cost, contract labor. The availability of healthcare supplies was limited, and supplies costs increased as well. Reduced demand and higher costs negatively affected our overall profitability and liquidity. Although the effects of COVID-19 have not been as significant in 2022 and 2023 as compared to prior years, a resurgence of COVID-19 in our markets could affect demand for services and increase our costs. In addition, government assistance programs may not be available as have been in the past to address such near-term profitability and liquidity pressures. These developments have had, and may in the future have, a material adverse effect on us and operations of our healthcare facilities.

As noted in Note 1 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements, we have received Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”) Provider Relief Funds from the federal government.

Results of Operations

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make a number of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Such estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We base our estimates on historical experiences and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions. We continue to monitor significant estimates made during the preparation of our financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate estimates and assumptions based upon historical experience and various other factors and circumstances.

We have identified the policies and significant estimation processes discussed below as critical to our business and to the understanding of our results of operations. For a detailed application of these and other accounting policies, see Note 2 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”), “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” including subsequently issued updates. Under the accounting guidance, our revenues are presented net of estimated contractual allowances and estimated implicit price concessions. We also do not present “allowances for doubtful accounts” on our balance sheets.

Our revenues relate to contracts with patients in which our performance obligations are to provide health care services to the patients. Revenues are recorded during the period our obligations to provide health care services are satisfied. Our performance obligations for inpatient services are generally satisfied over periods averaging approximately three days, and revenues are recognized based on charges incurred. Our performance obligations for outpatient services, including emergency room-related services, are generally satisfied over a period of less than one day. The contractual relationships with patients, in most cases, also involve a third-party payer (Medicare, Medicaid, managed care health plans and commercial insurance companies, including plans offered through the health insurance exchanges) and the transaction prices for the services provided are dependent upon the terms provided by (Medicare and Medicaid) or negotiated with (managed care health plans and commercial insurance companies) the third-party payers. The payment arrangements with third-party payers for the services we provide to the related patients typically specify payments at amounts less than our standard charges. Medicare, because of the Big South Fork Medical Center’s designation as a Critical Access Hospital, generally pays for inpatient and outpatient services at rates related to the hospital’s costs. Services provided to patients having Medicaid coverage are generally paid at prospectively determined rates per discharge, per identified service or per covered member. Agreements with commercial insurance carriers, managed care and preferred provider organizations generally provide for payments based upon predetermined rates per diagnosis, per diem rates or discounted fee-for-service rates. Management continually reviews the contractual estimation process to consider and incorporate updates to laws and regulations and the frequent changes in managed care contractual terms resulting from contract renegotiations and renewals. Our net revenues are based upon the estimated amounts we expect to be entitled to receive from patients and third-party payers. Estimates of contractual allowances under managed care and commercial insurance plans are based upon the payment terms specified in the related contractual agreements. Revenues related to uninsured patients and uninsured copayment and deductible amounts for patients who have health care coverage may have discounts applied (uninsured discounts and contractual discounts). We also record estimated implicit price concessions (based primarily on historical collection experience) related to uninsured accounts to record self-pay revenues at the estimated amounts we expect to collect.

Laws and regulations governing the Medicare and Medicaid programs are complex and subject to interpretation. Estimated reimbursement amounts are adjusted in subsequent periods as cost reports are prepared and filed and as final settlements are determined (in relation to certain government programs, primarily Medicare, this is generally referred to as the “cost report” filing and settlement process).

The collection of outstanding receivables for Medicare, Medicaid, managed care payers, other third-party payers and patients is our primary source of operating cash and is critical to our operating performance. The primary collection risks relate to uninsured patient accounts, including patient accounts for which the primary insurance carrier has paid the amounts covered by the applicable agreement, but patient responsibility amounts (deductibles and copayments) remain outstanding. Implicit price concessions relate primarily to amounts due directly from patients. Estimated implicit price concessions are recorded for all uninsured accounts, regardless of the aging of those accounts. Accounts are written off when all reasonable internal and external collection efforts have been performed. The estimates for implicit price concessions are based upon management’s assessment of historical write offs and expected net collections, business and economic conditions, trends in federal, state and private employer health care coverage and other collection indicators. Management relies on the results of detailed reviews of historical write-offs and collections at facilities that represent a majority of our revenues and accounts receivable (the “hindsight analysis”) as a primary source of information in estimating the collectability of our accounts receivable.

Contractual Allowances and Doubtful Accounts Policy

Accounts receivable are reported at realizable value, net of estimated contractual allowances and estimated implicit price concessions (also referred to as doubtful accounts), which are estimated and recorded in the period the related revenue is recorded. The Company has a standardized approach to estimating and reviewing the collectability of its receivables based on a number of factors, including the period they have been outstanding. Historical collection and payer reimbursement experience is an integral part of the estimation process related to contractual allowances and doubtful accounts. In addition, the Company regularly assesses the state of its billing operations in order to identify issues which may impact the receivables or reserve estimates. Receivables deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance for doubtful accounts at the time such receivables are written-off. Recoveries of receivables previously written-off are recorded as credits to the allowance for doubtful accounts. Revisions to the allowances for doubtful accounts are recorded as an adjustment to revenues.

Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets

We account for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets according to the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) ASC Topic 360, Property, Plant and Equipment (“ASC 360”). ASC 360 clarifies the accounting for the impairment of long-lived assets and for long-lived assets to be disposed of, including the disposal of business segments and major lines of business. Long-lived assets are reviewed when facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. When necessary, impaired assets are written down to estimated fair value based on the best information available. Estimated fair value is generally either based on appraised value or measured by discounting estimated future cash flows. Considerable management judgment is necessary to estimate discounted future cash flows. Accordingly, actual results could vary significantly from such estimates.

Fair Value Measurements

In accordance with ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” the Company applies fair value accounting for all financial assets and liabilities and non-financial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities which are required to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and the market-based risk measurements or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, such as risks inherent in valuation techniques, transfer restrictions and credit risk. Fair value is estimated by applying the following hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement:

Derivative Financial Instruments and Fair Value, Including ASU 2017-11 and ASU 2021-04

In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-11, “Earnings Per Share (Topic 260) Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480) Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815).” The amendments in Part I of this Update change the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features) with down round features. When determining whether certain financial instruments should be classified as liabilities or equity instruments, a down round feature no longer precludes equity classification when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The amendments also clarify existing disclosure requirements for equity-classified instruments. As a result, a freestanding equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded conversion option) no longer would be accounted for as a derivative liability at fair value as a result of the existence of a down round feature. For freestanding equity classified financial instruments, the amendments require entities that present earnings (loss) per share (EPS) in accordance with Topic 260 to recognize the effect of the down round feature when it is triggered. That effect is treated as a dividend and as a reduction of income available to common stockholders in basic and diluted EPS. Convertible instruments with embedded conversion options that have down round features are now subject to the specialized guidance for contingent beneficial conversion features (in Subtopic 470-20, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options), including related EPS guidance (in Topic 260).

In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40), Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options. The FASB issued this update to clarify and reduce diversity in an issuer’s accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options (for example, warrants) that remain equity classified after modification or exchange. The guidance clarifies whether an issuer should account for a modification or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that remains equity classified after modification or exchange as (1) an adjustment to equity (that is, deemed dividends) and, if so, the related earnings per share (EPS) effects, if any, or (2) an expense and, if so, the manner and pattern of recognition. We adopted this new accounting guidance on January 1, 2022. Under the new guidance, the FASB decided not to include convertible debt instruments in the guidance because ASU No 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10) requires that an entity capture the impact of changes in down round provision features of convertible debt within the fair value of the instruments.

Year ended December 31, 2023 compared to the year ended December 31,

The following table summarizes the results of our consolidated continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022:

Net Revenues

Net revenues were $18.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, as compared to $13.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, an increase of $5.7 million. We attribute the increase in net revenues to greater inpatient admissions, increased outpatient and emergency room services, higher reimbursement rates and certain collections from prior periods related to the Critical Access Hospital designation at our Big South Fork Medical Center. We began billing as a Critical Access Hospital in the three months ended June 30, 2022 retroactive to June 30, 2021.

Direct Costs of Revenues

Direct costs of revenues increased by $0.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to 2022. We attribute the increase primarily to higher salaries and wages and supply costs. Salaries and wages increased primarily due to greater inpatient admissions and increased staffing, including Myrtle staff, partially offset by reduced contract labor. Central supplies increased as a result of the increase in patient admissions.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses increased by $2.2 million, or 30.7%, in the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to 2022. Myrtle, our hospital operations and corporate related expenses contributed approximately $0.7 million, $1.3 million and $0.2 million of the increase, respectively. Myrtle began accepting patients on August 14, 2023. Our hospital operations general and administrative expenses increased primarily due to increased employee related expenses, professional and purchased services, software and IT services and property taxes. The increase in corporate related expenses was primarily due to an increase in software and IT services, consulting fees and payroll related expenses.

Depreciation and Amortization Expenses

Depreciation and amortization expenses were $0.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 as compared to $0.5 million in the year ended December 31, 2022 as a result of fully depreciating certain fixed assets.

Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations Before Other Income (Expense), Income Taxes and Net Loss Attributable to Noncontrolling Interest

Our income from continuing operations before other income (expense), income taxes and net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest for the year ended December 31, 2023 was $1.4 million compared to a loss of $1.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. We attribute the $2.8 million improvement in the year ended December 31, 2023 to the $5.7 million increase in net revenues in the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to the comparable 2022 period, partially offset by higher direct costs of revenues and general and administrative expenses in the year ended December 31, 2023 versus the 2022 period.

Other Income, Net

Other income, net for the year ended December 31, 2023 of $1.2 million consisted primarily of $0.3 million from HHS Provider Relief Funds as well as approximately $1.2 million from various other miscellaneous income items, including $0.1 million of non-cash interest income, partially offset by $0.3 million of penalties and interest associated with past due payroll taxes. Other income, net of $0.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 consisted primarily of adjustments totaling approximately $0.3 million for certain previously accrued payroll related expenses, $0.2 million of Non-cash interest income associated with the note receivable from related party, $0.6 million of income from HHS Provider Relief Funds and $0.5 million of various other income items, net, partially offset by $1.2 million of penalties and interest associated with past due payroll taxes.

Gain from Forgiveness of Debt

Gain from forgiveness of debt of $0.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 resulted from the forgiveness of a portion of outstanding notes payable. Gain from forgiveness of debt of $0.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 resulted from the forgiveness of Paycheck Protection Loans that were issued in connection with the COVID-19 Pandemic.

Loss from Legal Settlements, net

The loss from legal settlements, net was $0.8 million and $0.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The loss from legal settlements, net in the 2023 period resulted primarily from $0.3 million associated with the adjustment of reserves related to judgments with the former owners of Jamestown Regional Medical Center and $1.2 million from the settlement of a lawsuit related to HHS Provider Relief Funds, which is net of $0.1 million of related reserves. The loss in the 2023 period was partially offset by gains of $0.6 million from the settlements of obligations under two notes payable.

Change in Fair Value of Investment

During the year ended December 31, 2022, we recorded an $0.8 million charge for the change in the fair value of our investment in InnovaQor Series B-1 Preferred Stock. The change in the fair value resulted primarily from a change in the discount rate for marketability of InnovaQor’s common stock, among other factors.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2023 was $1.5 million compared to $2.3 million in 2022. Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2023 included approximately $1.4 million for interest on debentures and notes payable and $0.1 million for interest on loans from Mr. Diamantis, a former member of our Board of Directors. Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2022 included $2.2 million for interest on debentures and notes payable and $0.1 million for interest on loans from Mr. Diamantis. We attribute the decrease in interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to 2022 to an amendment and waiver agreement with the holders of our debentures. Under the agreement, which became effective on October 25, 2023, the Company is not obligated to recognize default interest in future periods, subject to remaining in compliance with covenants and other obligations.

Provision for Income Taxes

We incurred an income tax provision of $0.2 million and $0.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Net Loss from Continuing Operations

The net loss from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2023 was $0.6 million compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $3.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The improvement in the results from continuing operations for 2023 compared to 2022 of approximately $2.7 million was primarily due to the income from continuing operations before other income (expense), income taxes and net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest of $1.4 million for 2023 versus a loss of $1.4 million for 2022, an increase of other income, net of $0.7 million for 2023 compared to 2022, and a reduction in interest expense of $0.8 million for 2023 compared to 2022. Partially offsetting the improvement was a decrease of $0.1 million in the gain from forgiveness of debt for 2023 compared to 2022, a loss from legal settlements, net of $0.8 million for 2023 compared to a loss from legal settlements, net of $0.1 million for 2022 and a charge of $0.8 million for the change in the fair value of investment in 2023 compared to 2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

For the year ended December 31, 2023, we financed our operations with the $3.4 million of cash that we generated from operations, $0.6 million of loans from Mr. Diamantis, a former member of our Board of Directors, and $0.3 million from HHS Provider Relief Funds. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we financed our operations with $1.5 million from the issuance of our Series P Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock (“Series P Preferred Stock”), $1.1 million of loans from Mr. Diamantis and $0.5 million from the issuance of debentures. During the year ended December 31, 2023 we repaid $0.4 million of debentures, $1.1 million of notes payable and $1.4 million of loans from Mr. Diamantis. For the year ended December 31, 2022, we repaid $0.2 million of loans from Mr. Diamantis and $1.4 million of notes payable. Each of these financing transactions is more fully discussed in the footnotes to our accompanying consolidated financial statements. In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2022, we repaid $0.7 million of accounts receivable under sales agreements.

Future cash needs for working capital, capital expenditures, pursuit of opportunities in the behavioral health sector, debt service obligations and potential acquisitions will require management to seek additional capital. The sale/issuance of additional equity will result in additional dilution to our stockholders.

As more fully discussed above under the heading, “Recent Events” above, we sold Myrtle on June 14, 2024 and RCHI, including its wholly-owned subsidiary, SCCH, on September 10, 2024 to FOXO. In connection with these sales, as of December 31, 2024, we have notes receivable from Myrtle and RCHI totaling $1.8 million, 1,023,629 shares of FOXO Common Stock and 21,000 shares of FOXO Series A Preferred Stock with a stated value of $1,000 per share. See Note 18 for subsequent events.

Going Concern and Liquidity

Under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) (“ASC 205-40”), the Company has the responsibility to evaluate whether conditions and/or events raise substantial doubt about its ability to meet its future financial obligations as they become due within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. As required by ASC 205-40, this evaluation shall initially not take into consideration the potential mitigating effects of plans that have not been fully implemented as of the date the financial statements are issued. Management has assessed the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern in accordance with the requirement of ASC 205-40.

At December 31, 2023, the Company had a working capital deficit and stockholders’ deficit of $35.6 million and $36.8 million, respectively. We incurred net losses of $7.7 million and $3.3 million during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. As of the date of this report, our cash is deficient and payments for our operations in the ordinary course are not being made. The prior year losses and other related factors, including past due accounts payable and payroll taxes, as well as payment defaults under the terms of an outstanding note payable and a related party loan for which repayment has been requested, as more fully discussed in Notes 1, 7 and 8 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for 12 months from the filing date of this report.

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared assuming the Company can continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations through realization of assets, and the settling of liabilities in the normal course of business. In 2021, the Company sold subsidiaries to InnovaQor, Inc. and the Company received 14,950 shares of InnovaQor, Inc.’s Series B-1 Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock (the “InnovaQor Series B-1 Preferred Stock”) valued at $9.1 million as consideration for the sale. As of December 31, 2023, the Company held 14,850 shares of InnovaQor Series B-1 Preferred Stock valued at $8.2 million as an investment. The $0.8 million reduction in the fair value of the InnovaQor Series B-1 Preferred Stock as of December 31, 2023, was due primarily to the change in the discount rate for marketability of InnovaQor’s common stock, among other factors.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

At December 31, 2023, the Company was party to legal proceedings, which are presented in Note 14 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Common Stock and Common Stock Equivalents

The Company had 40,551,322,257 and 29,084,322,257 shares of its common stock issued and outstanding at December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company issued 5.5 billion shares of its common stock upon conversions of $0.5 million of stated value of its Series N Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “Series N Preferred Stock”) and 6.0 billion shares of its common stock upon conversions of $0.5 million of stated value of its Series O Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “Series O Preferred Stock”). During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company issued one share of its common stock upon conversion of 1,750,000 shares of its Series F Convertible Preferred Stock, 16.0 billion shares of its common stock upon conversions of $3.0 million of stated value of its Series N Preferred Stock and 13.1 billion shares of its common stock upon the conversions of $1.2 million of stated value of its Series O Preferred Stock.

The terms of certain of the outstanding warrants, convertible preferred stock and convertible debentures issued by the Company provide for reductions in the per share exercise prices of the warrants and the per share conversion prices of the debentures and preferred stock (if applicable and subject to a floor in certain cases), in the event that the Company issues common stock or common stock equivalents (as that term is defined in the agreements) at an effective exercise/conversion price that is less than the then exercise/conversion price of the outstanding warrants, preferred stock or debentures, as the case may be. In addition, the majority of these equity-based securities contain exercise/conversion prices that vary based upon the price of the Company’s common stock on the date of exercise/conversion (see Notes 8, 11 and 12 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements). These provisions have resulted in significant dilution of the Company’s common stock and have given rise to reverse splits of the Company’s common stock, including a 1-for-10,000 reverse stock split effected on March 15, 2022. As a result of these down round provisions, the potential common stock equivalents, including outstanding common stock, were 1.0 trillion at December 31, 2023.

On August 13, 2020, Mr. Diamantis entered into the Voting Agreement and Irrevocable Proxy (the “Voting Agreement”) with the Company, Mr. Seamus Lagan and Alcimede LLC (of which Mr. Lagan, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, is the sole manager) pursuant to which Mr. Diamantis granted an irrevocable proxy to Mr. Lagan to vote the Series M Preferred Stock held by Mr. Diamantis. Mr. Diamantis has retained all other rights under the Series M Preferred Stock. Regardless of the number of shares of Series M Preferred Stock outstanding and so long as at least one share of Series M Preferred Stock is outstanding, the outstanding shares of Series M Preferred Stock shall have the number of votes, in the aggregate, equal to 51% of all votes entitled to be voted at any meeting of stockholders or action by written consent. This means that the holders of Series M Preferred Stock have sufficient votes, by themselves, to approve or defeat any proposal voted on by the Company’s stockholders, unless there is a supermajority required under applicable law or by agreement.

Also, on November 5, 2021, the Company amended its Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, to provide that the number of authorized shares of its common stock or preferred stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the stock of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (or any successor provision thereto), voting together as a single class, without a separate vote of the holders of the class or classes the number of authorized shares of which are being increased or decreased unless a vote by any holders of one or more series of preferred stock is required by the express terms of any series of preferred stock pursuant to the terms thereof.

As a result of the Voting Agreement and the November 5, 2021 amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation discussed above, as of the date of filing of this report, the Company believes that it has the ability to ensure that it has and/or can obtain sufficient authorized shares of its common stock to cover all potentially dilutive shares of common stock outstanding.

Inflation and Supply Chain Issues

The healthcare industry is very labor intensive, and salaries and benefits are subject to inflationary pressures, as are supply and other costs. The nationwide shortage of nurses and other clinical staff and support personnel has been a significant operating issue facing us and other healthcare providers. Like others in the healthcare industry, we continue to experience a shortage of nurses and other clinical staff and support personnel. This staffing shortage may require us to further enhance wages and benefits to recruit and retain nurses and other clinical staff and support personnel or require us to hire expensive temporary personnel. Our ability to pass on increased costs associated with providing healthcare to Medicare and Medicaid patients is limited due to various federal, state and local laws which have been enacted that, in certain cases, limit our ability to increase prices.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Under SEC regulations, we are required to disclose the Company’s off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors. Off-balance sheet arrangements consist of transactions, agreements or contractual arrangements to which any entity that is not consolidated with us is a party, under which we have:

As of December 31, 2023, the Company had no off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

Not applicable.
